> It might be worth it to try and detect if the incoming data is compressed
or not, and only decompress it if it is compressed.
I don't think the recent commit is tenable. It should be all or nothing, as
it was originally, or we'll have to add smarts like you mentioned. This makes
me wonder - what happens when someone wants compression but not gzip? That
thought train leads me to adding said smarts, and making it somewhat pluggable.
