I say:
My "learning" of HTTP predates "chunked".  I've mostly heard of it being used 
in downloads rather than uploads, but I'm not sure if it pertains to uploads or 
not.  Since all the data transfer is effectively chunked by TCP/IP into 
packets, I'm not clear on what the benefit is, but I am pretty sure it is 
off-topic for this bug, at least until FieldStorage works at all on 3.x, like 
for small pieces of data.

I meant to say in my preceding response, that the multiple encodings that may 
be found in an HTTP stream, make it inappropriate to assign an encoding to the 
file through which the HTTP data streams... that explicit decode calls by 
FieldStorage should take place on appropriate chunks only.  I almost got there, 
so maybe you picked it up.  But I didn't quite say it.
