This is a specific case of my more general question, "One of your stated
goals is to avoid downloading resources you already have, but even with
manifests, I see no way to do this, since the client can't actually tell the
server 'only send items x, y, and z'."  This was the one point Alexander
didn't copy in his reply mail.
