If I'm reading this correctly, this means that you won't use this preview 
thing either because it fetches actual body part data. Fair enough, that's 
probably a good optimization, but I do not see how is that relevant to the 
proposed extension which would have a very similar cost. Unless you assume 
servers will add adaptive caching, which they can already do now.

With kind regards,
