Nah, this allows us flexibility in optimizing the data sent to our client. If we can send chunked-encoding, I believe that is a better than using C-L. I believe that the RFC allows us to do these sorts of optimizations. IIRC, the PR wasn't saying there was a problem with our approach - it was just that the admin didn't understand that was legal. -- justin
