Hi,

Two suggestions to make addDatastream for inline content more flexible:

* Instead of uploading the content first and then giving a reference in 
dsLocation (2 web service calls with additional (temporary?) storage) it would 
be nice to supply the content directly, maybe in place of the dsLocation (1 web 
service call and no need for additional storage).
* I'm not quite sure why the restriction that inline content must be XML. This 
seems to have several drawbacks: Not every content is natively XML, The XML 
currently gets parsed on the server side and then re-serialized which is a 
seemingly unnecessary performance overhead, the previous item seems to also 
break checksums in some cases. Wouldn't it be much easier to just accept any 
input, XML encode non-XML characters on the server and just write it into the 
FoXML?

Cheers,
Carsten
