ok, as far as i understand the patch, if somebody
tries to http_get file 'xy.html' and the webserver
finds 'xy.html.gz' it serves this file, right?

the storage-argument is not really valid, because the
files are usually compressed anyway (squashfs or jffs2).
the "slow networks" argument is ofcourse valid.
