Now that I'm running Coda over IPsec, I realize it would be very nice if Coda were able to apply gzip or something to the bulk file transfers. I realize I could use IPcomp, but it seems better to allow reuse of compression context across the whole application data unit. I don't know how hard this would be, but I thought I'd mention it so that it can get put on the wish-list for future redesign thoughts - I suspect keeping this in mind when redoing side-effects for TCP would make an eventual implementation of file-level compression a lot easier.
