HTTP2 ideas:

-- authentication
Currently I'm going to fake this with document delivery
via e-mail, but I'd rather have *real* authentication.
Should the authentication scheme be build in, or should
it be left to clients and servers to guess?
-- tracking changes
I should be able to ping a document and get a unique
value back (cf md5 or snefru) to see whether it has
changed or not.
