I'm reviewing this patch right now, but the above paragraph caught my
attention.

Is there a way that, at run-time, we could ask neon not to use
compressed transmissions? It would be great if we could pass a
--no-gzip to the cmdline client that would instruct neon not to use
compression. Or perhaps --enable-maintainer-mode at build-time could
toggle this behavior ("debug" clients use human-readable transmission,
"release" clients use gzip if available). I dunno, just some thotz.
