It's not going to be sufficient. What do you think the Content-Size
and Content-Type should be for the HEAD and GET on the symlink object?
What I'm getting to though, for symlink to be of any use, it must
return the linked object on GETs. Yet, it must be distinguishable
(return some kind of system metadata). Also, it must be possible to
discover that it is, in fact, a symlink. A query parameter perhaps.
