hehe, back to the metadata arguments...

How about an optional redirect handler field like this:

ClientGet
URI=KSK at test.html
HopsToLive=10
RedirectHandler=HTTPRedirect
EndMessage

and dynamically load the HTTPRedirect class to process the metadata.  The
swarm/MPC style redirect may be too connection intensive for FCP (as the
MSK/MapHandler currently is for fproxy).  It's true that localhost
connections are cheap in whiterose, but they aren't as cheap in Fred where
more connections mean more threads.
