This is a terrific idea, thank you.

I would love to hear some of the implications of this approach. I can already think that the attacker would know the size of the file, so that might give him information regarding e.g. the file type. It might be of interest to an attacker to know that most clients get files of a specific size, but a certain client gets a file that is much much larger.

I wonder what other implications might there be.
