Hi Magnus, > One word: Middleware. > sorry, I didn't found the old discussions here regarding rewind (maybe a typo in my search phrase). Is there any proposal planned to change the specs to allow a more effective input implementation? My first thought was something like an unrewindable_input() function, that provides an input stream that doesn't provide a rewind() interface, but buffers the data read through this interface, so that the original input can still provide this data. If all middleware would be aware of this interface and the final application wouldn't need to rewind(), the input would just have to store the part of the input that have to be processed twice.
