Allow GWT SuperDevMode to access Node.js functions

[thinwire]

I'm developing a NW.JS application using GWT. The applicaton needs access to node.js methods to work. I've found no way to point nw to load my application via SuperDevMode in such a way that it'd give access to node.js functionality for my application. Apparently, this was actively blocked out as a security hole per ticket #534.
My current workaround is to debug all non-filesystem related issues using SuperDevMode and a web browser, and then just crank out build after build using the regular GWT compiler to test with nw.js, but this is cumbersome.
I'd like nw.js to provide a command-line switch for these situations, to grant a security exception to an application loaded via a specific (perhaps even just localhost) URL.
For the record, SuperDevMode provides an up-to-date application via http://localhost:8888/ by default (recompiled on reload if necessary), although it's configurable.
