I'm confused why we would prefetch these instead of just downloading
them.  The needsdata() method for license actions _always_ returns true,
meaning that the client will always download all of the licenses during
the download phase.  Wouldn't it be simpler to split the actions in the
packgage plan into licenses and files, and download the licenses
seperately first if we need to display any of their content prior to
install?

Yes; I realised that just a bit ago and have basically implemented that.
