Hi everyone!

I think that if Mozilla is going to support this in the download, it should also
 eventually support downloads transparently as a file handler as well. Why not
share those caches we all have on our hard disk that were originally received as
a public url?

For example:

<img src="bt://public.server.com/url/to/image.torrent" />

If this grows in popularity, I could see this affecting the usefulness of
services such as Akamai. Do torrents have mimetype information inside of them so
that the browser would know to render that torrent as a jpeg?? =)
