 I would like to create a page on another domain that demonstrates stream
 isolation in Tor Browser. This is the mechanism whereby a web page in an
 iframe is downloaded via the same Tor circuit as the first party parent
 document was.

 Right now, https://check.torproject.org/api/ip cannot be included in
 iframes or fetched by a script in a web page.

 So I would like to propose setting
 Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
 and removing the `X-Frame-Options` header
 for this particular endpoint.
