Rather than call it X-Sendfile, can we perhaps adopt the generic Script-Control header mechanism as outlined in CGI 1.2.
http://cgi-spec.golux.com/cgi-120-00a.html As one example of how Script-Control has been used, see: http://www.openvms-rocks.com/ht_root/src/httpd/cgi.c I have been contemplating using Script-Control headers as a means of Python WSGI applications controlling Apache when using mod_wsgi. It would be nice to push forward with such an idea and standardise on some Script-Control directives that everyone would use rather than using different strings for the same thing.
