We may wish to add a mechanism to allow clients to provide a suggested data block size to the server, to enable some control over the maximum size of the contents of the urls list in the returned ticket.

[This issue was previously listed as a “possible future enhancement” within the htsget specification text itself.]

Move enhancement suggestions to GitHub issues
df96264 
Remove enhancement and suggestion sections as they have been created
as issues on the hts-specs repository instead:

- #594 Request reads from more than one ID at a time
- #595 Allow clients to provide a suggested data block size to the server
- #596 Add a way to request reads in GA4GH binary format
- #597 `format` should probably be specified as a (comma separated?) list

See also PR #271 which is a concrete proposal for block size negotiation.
