There's a Filter example included with the Tomcat 4 distribution that
might give you some hints - it does on-the-fly GZIP compression if your
browser tells the server that it supports this, and passes the request on
unmodified otherwise.
Source code is in the "webapps/examples/WEB-INF/classes/compressionFilters"
directory in the Tomcat binary distribution. It's not enabled by default,
but you can uncomment the appropriate stuff in web.xml to play with it.
