Yep, very unlikely to forget that :}. (For the list:
HTTP/1.1 requires all implementors to implement a specific TE coding
called 'chunked'. This allows persistent connections to handle dynamic
data of unknown length, and also allows HTTP Headers -after- the message
(called Trailers). These can be used for things like message signing...)

TE chunked coding suffers from the same problems compression did in 2.x,
and it'll be the first thing implemented when the TE project gets a
sponsor, or I get back to it on a volunteer basis..
