Well, perhaps I jumped to self-chastisement a bit too quick. There's a
single string parameter that can be passed to stream_filter_append /
stream_filter_prepend, but how would one retrieve this information once
inside of the filter? Moreover, for passing arbitrary zvals in, would I
have to resort some hackery using array keys from a global, or is there
an easier way?

Thanks in advance,
