Are there any plans on supporting CORS requests?

It's already there for OPTION requests:

JSONP works mostly but it doesn't expose the error event. Occasionally I have some IP's which result in a 404 error response. With JSONP I can't get the error response and therefore don't know why it failed. If i could catch the error then I would mark it as failed and then not look it up the next time.

You should be able to handle 404 normally, see the link below for details:
