Right now for me is useful because I'm using gzip to compress css and js files. But I need to keep the original files for some cases where compressed files can't be used. I can workaround it in many ways (changing the ownership and checking the exit status == 2 -though not perfect because there can be other warnings-, compress and regenerate the files again, etc.), but it's always a workaround. What I need is to compress and keep the original files. > It's not clear, from the patch. Yes, sorry I didn't mention. My bad. Is this use case valid enough to accept the patch ? Thanks a lot, Rodrigo
