           Summary: Support gzip encoding

This question pops up every now and then.  Adding support for gzip would require
no changes to the validator code, just installing Compress::Zlib on v.w.o should
be enough; LWP would do things transparently then.

If implemented, it would however have some kind of effect on the CPU load
(probably not a problem), and maybe the documentation should say a few words
about the implementation (since LWP uses TE instead of the more usual
Accept-Encoding).
