80
+This capability should only be used with the smart HTTP protocol. If
81
+multi_ack_detailed and no-done are both present, then the sender is
82
+free to immediately send a pack following its first "ACK obj-id ready"
83
+message.
84
+
85
+Without no-done in the smart HTTP protocol, the server session would
86
+end and the client has to make another trip to send "done" before
87
+the server can send the pack. no-done removes the last round and
88
+thus slightly reduces latency.
