One idea that comes to me is to allow read of /errors/read/KSK@blah

I'm intending to keep a memory cache of recent requests, keyed by URI,
such that this error info can be reliably retrieved.

Another thought is to cache some retrieved keys into the host
filesystem, with hashed filenames and encrypted contents, to speed up
performance.

Anyway, if you refer to the wiki page I put up (FreenetFS), you'll see
that the mimetype issue has been addressed.

Any further thoughts, either as replies to this thread, or hacks to the
wiki page, are most welcome.

Thanks for the input so far. Please keep it coming.
