    Yes, you can do that in a windows dialog - but the question is, can
    I use a url as a file path for a datasource (unmanaged) via Maestro?
    Also, can I map a server alias using a url (rather than a local
    drive letter)? I'm guessing the answer to that last one is a firm,
    no....though it might be handy. <br>

                    <pre>Under the hood, we're basically using the HttpWebRequest class whose input is
now an unbounded System.IO.Stream instead of a man-in-the-middle
MemoryStream. 

Although the latter does simplify code and we still use this code path if
the file we're uploading is small enough, it is obviously an inefficient use
of memory and an OOM trigger if we're trying to upload a file that's several
GBs in size.

So yes it's feasible. Our API just expects a System.IO.Stream. We don't care
whether it's a file, in-memory object, or a download data stream from a
remote cloud service/provider.
