For example, I'm doing a mock-up of what a solution to the chunk
encoding problem you described might look like, and I have questions
which would be simple for an expert like yourself to answer and save
me a lot of time (and help create a better product). Here's am
example:

* Should the new chunk interface require that the chunk exist in
memory as a single ConstBufferSequence?

* Or is it necessary to support a system where a chunk can be sent
using a smaller buffer, periodically refilled?
