I'm thinking of some simple feedback from the client -> server saying
"yup, I've copied a little more". The http.c side stuff can then stop
reading when it finds itself too far ahead, and resume reading when
the clients have caught up.

I'm trying to avoid a too specific hack, like hiding the FD in the right place
for this kind of notification. i'd rather keep the FD stuff seperate from the
client/server abstraction.
