Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Origin, Accept-Language, Content-Language, Cache-Control,
Dropbox-API-Select-User, Accept, Range, Referer, Dropbox-API-Arg, If-Modified-Since,
If-None-Match, Content-Type, Dropbox-API-User-Locale, AuthorizationAs you see, Dropbox-API-Arg is already supported, so there is no need to work around the preflight request
