[X3D-Ecosystem] Streaming X3D

[John Carlson]

The key will be the full disclosure of URLs in X3DJSONLD user interface .
So people will be able to identify, say, web3d.org’s URLs from the
X3DJSONLD 12’s website, hopefully with a hierarchy of selected web3d
examples.

But yeah, I think that CORS might be an issue.

Caching URLs in the non-web client will be key for speed.
