That does sound like a very good option if it's not too hard to create
server side.


Not sure if it really would be much worth it if the server is actually
still putting the data there in the MIME attachments - that would
still go over the wire -  you would only remove the problem of having
a massive base64-encoded thing mess up for the XML parsers - in
addition to that the client could put it straight to disk and not
waste as much memory.


Do you know if MIME attachments would be the case with your example
code - or would you get a 'real' URL that you can retrieve the data
from afterwards - if you need it? And that you can pass up again as a
parameter?
