Can we really stream an InputStream directly to the backend? Don't we
need to prefix the message with a length argument? and the only way to
get this with the InputStream API is to read the whole thing. Yes, we can
avoid the translation/escaping, but I don't think we can avoid persisting
the InputStream at some point.
