I'll second that, but in a sense chunks is quite similar to Vary, and if
one low level concept can be found that can cover both then I would be
very happy.
Most other formats can quite easily be transferred to/from chunked.
chunked covers the normal case of one big sequential chunk of data.
However, I think that it might be wise to normalize objects to their
sequential form if an opportunity is given. (i.e. re-requested in their
sequential form).
