Well only Chrome has issues with XHR to local files. However, all 
browsers are going to have trouble
html in one local trying to do XHR to another. If they didnt protect 
against this, then creating malicious web pages would be very easy. If 
you absolutely had to have kml local, there might be hard to achieve it, 
but only if you are prepared to edit the kml to use the JSONP mechanism 
(so they would no longer be actually kml). You would have to fiddle 
Openlayers too which might be quite a mission.
