This problem is a normal recursive paradox with two content hashed files,
just like trying to make two html files with CHK links to each other: the
hash of one depends on the hash of the other, and you can't get the hash
of the other without the hash of the first. That's one reason why I first
ruled out this idea. But if you redirect through an enumerated SSK key it
will work.

I still don't know how to implement it this way, with ambiguous URIs. Once
we read the metadata from "blah.html", and notice the
MapFile=SSK@blah/blah, how do we remember to use it (and not the normal
SSK) when the next request comes in from a link or image on that page?

Another subspace? Why bother with another subspace just for map files.
