Comment (by kevan):

 attachment:393status38.dpatch hooks the webapi up to the update behavior
 by adding an optional offset parameter to PUT requests to a filecap. If
 the filecap is mutable, it will append the content of the HTTP request to
 the file at the given offset. I'm not sure if this is the best way to go
 about this, and I'm not sure if it makes sense to add a corresponding
 option to the corresponding POST handler (which I think is used by the
 WUI, which might not have much use for the ability to do this). It also
 adds tests for these behaviors.

 I'm going to spend next week tidying up the code and polishing up some
 odds and ends. Before I start working on that, I'll re-record my patchset
 into something more coherent for review purposes. Once I've done that,
 I'll set the review-needed keyword, so people can hopefully review my
 changes. I also need to sync these patches with the trunk so that they
 apply cleanly.
