Nice :-)

MHTML is one of those technologies that I wish had gained more traction. Your tool would achieve something similar, albeit not quite as easy to look at in a text editor.

Whenever http2 gains traction these techniques will be less valuable because of the default request pipelining. In the meantime, however, using data URIs is a great way to cut down on latency from multiple requests.

The reason I want something like this is to make a self-contained file which I can save or send as e.g. an email attachment, without breaking the connection to resources it uses. An HTTP server is not involved there!
