Thanks, this sounds like a great idea, and maybe even something I
might use once my current remote-storage contract expires.  I couldn't
download the bitbucket module though at the link you provided.

I added the code in your message and changed the web page to mentioned
the Amazon S3 link.  I'd like to add an S3 example to the
documentation, but don't know what ${access_key} et al look like.  If
you give me an S3 URL with some realistic looking values I'll add it
to the web and man pages.
