-- | Use gzip to compress the body of the response.

-- Analyzes the \"Accept-Encoding\" header from the client to determine
-- if gzip is supported.
--
-- Possible future enhancements:
--
-- * Only compress if the response is above a certain size.
--
-- * I've read that IE can\'t support compression for Javascript files.
