Hi folks,

for contigious streaming, we could introduce a new TContRead op,
which tells the server to automatically send new data when available.

Maybe that could also carry some timestamp, so we can synchronize
different streams (eg. audio/video). Of course, this requires some
clear clock reference.

Servers which do not support that, would just reply Rerror, so the
client knows he should try simple TRead loop.
