What would be *really* nice to have would be to implement something similar, 
but with uIP to allow loading files using HTTP (or FTP, but that is harder). 
Imagine

load "http://www.c64.com/games/ik+.prg",6
load "ftp://ftp.c64.com/$",6

Groepaz (who asked where uIP could be found), uIP can be found at 
[http://dunkels.com/adam/uip/]. Version 0.4 compiles with version 2.6.x of 
cc65, but doesn't work with the newest cc65 version.
