    Howdy y'all.
    
    This may be a good solution. It should not have to imply to much of change
    to anything, I presume. But why not allow for streaming immediately. I mean
    I am among the ones who would like to have the possibility to write things
    to disk. :)
    
    However, in my view this is a good solution.
