I've read in at least one place (a PHP book I think) that browsers are
very inconsistent in their
handling of the content-disposition header. Some will "believe" the
suggested filename, but
ignore the extension, and implied file type.

I mean a standard redirect to a normal .zip file, which you let apache
serve for you like any other file. Then you clear these out
periodically with a cron job.
