I thought restconfig might be using it as well to send zip files back to 
the client... but I think that could be another method I am thinking of. 
Might want to double check.

How about overloading the method with a flag called "finish" and by 
default have it set to true. Then your code can just pass in false. 
Ensures that no client code can break.
