It is, and as BUIs move more towards client's doing the access of the URLs, it
is something we need to fix - since most browsers restrict cross-domain 
access (including different ports on the same host) for security reasons.

This is the reason that the Horizon guys wrote a kind of reverse-proxy 
WSGI to enable demonstrations of the AngularJS work last week - so that
all the REST API calls were back to the origin of Horizon itself.
