No luck. Firefox won't send new requests in response to 4xx codes, and
it will only send up to 20 requests per page in response to 3xx codes.
I suppose another possibility would be to create a simple "out-of-order"
file format, which could be shared with other p2p networks that support
out-of-order downloads. The file starts with a 64-bit length field, and
each chunk is prefixed with a 64-bit length and a 64-bit offset. It's
pretty trivial to reassemble files, detect incomplete files and resume
downloads, and the inconvenience for users is no worse than downloading
a ZIP archive.
Cheers,
Michael
