Re: [thredds] nco as a web service

My point about URL length with GET.  This is not about what's possible but 
what's practical given the various network topologies out-in-the-wild. An 
sample use case...  There's an federal bureau that utilize web-application 
firewalls (WAF) across their topology.  There's a URL length restriction where 
anything beyond that length automatically gets rejected with a HTTP 404 
(conveniently, no other explanations).  The length of this URL is approaching 
that limit.  You do not want to be debugging issues for users with this kinda 
of topology, it's a rabbit-hole.
