The origin of a download is one of the best / most important indicators people have right now (which, by itself, is a bit of a shame). I just think it would be a substantial regression to make it possible for microsoft.com or google.com to unwittingly serve .exe / .jar / .zip / .rar files based on third-party markup. Firefox and MSIE display the origin fairly prominently, IIRC; Chrome displays it in some views. But deficiencies of current UIs are probably a separate problem. /mz
