Comment(by arma):
Answer (as far as I can tell): making a new url for each request was
intended to prevent the adversary from learning the URL and blocking it.
But in most of these cases, the url will be https, so the adversary can't
see enough of the URL (when an honest user fetches it) to block it.
So I think we should just stick with one URL for each bundle, and maybe
rotate it every so often if that's helpful in some way (like if it's some
other service that does allow http).
