Ah.. I already started to wonder :-)

Thinking about your problems with multipart support.... another approach =
could=20
be to use internal IO-slaves. E.g. you would pass a URL that points to an=
=20
internal IO-slave and the part would then ask for that URL and get's it d=
ata=20
from this io-slave. I must say your solution is more elegant but the=20
drawbacks would be that the KPart(s) need to be adapted to it. You will n=
ever=20
be able to rely on all parts having support for this stream extension.

Cheers,
Waldo
