For example, an HTTP server may generate previews and return them with the main URL. This is done in a lot of pics hostings and is very handy for a client. 2) How is it possible to offer HTTP Download (see 7.1) with multiple files and some of those are thumbnails? So, for example, a receiving entity sees a thumbnail first and downloads the original content if she likes it. 3) How this XEP can be combined with MUC? Let's say a client did HTTP Upload, how will it share the URL in MUC? Will it use procedures from 7.1 directly to MUC room jid? 4) How this XEP can be used when a user wants to share an HTTP Uploaded URI with an offline contact? I don't see this XEP resolves any of these.
