HTTP Range and BOM

Hi folks,

I don't know if this needs to be mentioned, but there is a Range request
header in HTTP that allows you to ask for a particular part of an
object. I believe that the BOM should always be only at the beginning of
the object, and should not be inserted for Range requests.

For example, even if the client asks for bytes 500 to 1000, the server
should not prepend a BOM in front of byte 500.

Any objections?

Erik
