That is a great idea, thanks for the tip. :)

Anyone got thoughts on how one could reliably insert encryption (via
gpg) or compression (gzip) into the equation, and still get it output in
media-size chunks without having to play with temp files?  (Or even
_with_ temp files, but that would be a heck of a lot uglier, I think.)

Maybe with some program sitting in the pipe that can break up the stream
into the desired # of blocks?  (pkgsrc/misc/buffer perhaps?)
