Obviously, there is a limit to how large an MP4 you can send with it, and
for anything larger you must use POST or PUT, but there is still something
to be said for being able to choose a limit (preferably at run time) that
makes sense for your particular use case.
It seems rather ineffective to base64 it just to be able to put it in the URL!
I really want us to avoid adding an option for this. We already have too many
options. We need docs, tests and more to maintain every option and every
option adds to the haystack in which users needs to find their needles when
they look for specific options.
E.g., we usually also configured Apache with "LimitRequestLine 100000000",
Wow.
