Issue #6873 has been updated by Luke Kanies.

The problem is that it's largely impossible to get content by checksum unless, 
um, you already have it, or someone else does - thus my mention of the need for 
a central filebucket.

I.e., if a server translates a file url into the associated checksum, and then 
another server is asked for that checksum, the second server has no builtin way 
to translate that checksum to the original URL, and thus can only return an 
error.  We should probably do something like retain the original URL on the 
client, and then pass it when we ask the server for a file, so it can look up 
the content if it doesn't have access to it.

Feature #6873: Catalogs should be statically compiled

Catalogs that specify file URLs are currently not static - if the remote URL 
changes, then the configuration can change without the catalog changing.

We should instead replace all file URLs on the server side with the file data 
pointed to by that URL.

This is already implemented by the following branch:
