Thanks. I believe that in this case the stream should only contain the
backup information. So as far as I know the code above should indeed
work correctly, but as I haven't really looked into the streaming backup
functionality I am not entirely sure. Of course, for it to be feature
complete it would also need the streaming restore functionality ;)

It looks like it would be. If it turns out to be simple enough, I might
even squeeze it into Jaybird 3.0.

No problem. Contributions are always welcome, but I also understand time
constraints :).
