While I was working on this, I decided the easiest thing to do was to go
back to using an empty name as the EOF marker (over the socket) and then
adding code that ensures that the user's data stream has all empty lines
removed from it before transmission. The patch has been updated, and I
don't believe there are any remaining issues to be resolved. Please
feel free to test it and let me know how things go:
