crossdomain.xml support on Chromecast would greatly help with migration from a flash-based infrastructure

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Have an existing VOD infrastructure for Flash video playback that spans 
multiple domains and servers.
2. Have the crossdomain.xml setup like this:
<cross-domain-policy>
<allow-access-from domain="*" />
<site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="master-only" />
</cross-domain-policy>
3. Attempt to stream the video on chromecast

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

It would be great if Chromecast could support existing crossdomain.xml files 
instead of having to configure every single server in our existing 
infrastructure for CORS.  It would make our existing Flash infrastructure able 
to support Chromecast.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

We've decided not to support this at the moment since CORS (not the XML 
version, which is really for flash-based players), is the W3 standard. Most 
CDNs support CORS or enable their customers to set that up. We'll make updates 
to this ticket if anything changes.
