[pdf-devel] RFC on fsys-http design

[Scott Fohey]

I am currently leaning toward implementing the http filesystem such
that downloaded data is written to a temp file using the disk filesystem
and read requests from from the public pdf_fsys_http_file_read function
are handled with the pdf_fsys_disk_file_read function - being careful to
only send back data that has actually been downloaded.

This will facilitate RIA, with some overhead of keeping track of what data
has been written in the temp file.  It will require setting the size of the
temp file to the full size of the to-be-downloaded item right from the start,
but this does not seem like a problem...

Any comments would be appreciated.
