Assuming no official mechanism is available, any thoughts on how to hack something together? Tags Data Files Data Management Download Web Logs

As for hacking something together, it may be possible to script your browser to perform the various download actions programmatically, but that's certainly not ideal. I'll add some sort of alternative access method to our list of features for consideration.
