If you put it in the key then you have a single URI describing the file,
which is nice for a number of reasons.

1) You only have to fetch one file if you have the DBR URI.
   a. Faster
   b. More reliable
2) Redirects and Date-based redirects can be merged in the control document
   spec, simplifiying it.

Additionally, everything works as before. We just have a new keytype that
does some new stuff.

I also just like the idea of having a URI which tells you everything you
need to get the file whenever that's possible.
