The new Version 0.6.0 will include support for Content-encoding: gzip in the Python Desktop Server. The source is already in CVS, so if you want to help save bandwidth now, upgrade to the latest CVS version.
gzip support was actually on the todo for quite some time now, but I just pushed it off for quite some time now. How the Python Desktop Server implements it is that it stores the Content-encoding: header with every file in it's download cache and if you use the downstream.download() method, you will get transparently decoded stuff (so the file isn't only pulled down compressed to save bandwidth, it's stored in the cache compressed to save disk space, too. Whew! ).
