  <note>
   <simpara>
    Stream data is read from resources (both local and remote) in chunks,
    with any unconsumed data kept in internal buffers.  When a new
    filter is appended to a stream, data in the internal buffers is processed through
    the new filter at that time.  This differs from the behavior of
    <function>stream_filter_prepend</function>.
   </simpara>
  </note>
  <note>
   <simpara>
    When a filter is added for read and write, two instances of the filter
    are created. <function>stream_filter_append</function> must be called twice 
    with <constant>STREAM_FILTER_READ</constant> and 
    <constant>STREAM_FILTER_WRITE</constant> to get both filter resources.
