Ahh, good to know. But _still_, I am not sure whether the function may be
called with 0 bytes _if the transferred file is *not* empty._
I think it doesn't specifically specify that because we haven't wanted to make
that promise. Partly because it seems that applications don't really *need*
that promise and people have not asked for it. Until now.
3) Depending on the protocol [or something else], this function may or will
never be called with zero bytes if the transferred file is not empty.
I want to say this as that's basically what is implied now and it makes the
least amount of promise and we don't have to change anything... =)
This said, I don't think it currently actually ever calls the callback with
zero bytes other than the specific use case already mentioned above!
