Interesting - it sounds like this is a kind of client/publisher
agreement that sidesteps the server entirely. Almost a super-protocol.
In the sense that you, as publisher, are free to make whatever files you
want available while I, as the client, am free to display your files in
whatever way I like.

(Think about how awkward it would be to _exclude_ this behaviour in the
spec!)
