Are there any alternatives which do? It seems that this feature is
extremely rare among (structured) transport protocols---even many HTTP

Adding transfer large data feature to the Thrift would kill it as a
protocol. It's a nice smart framework targeting multi-platform RPC based
by DDL and code generation. It's not a panacea for all possible
scenarios and should not be.
