I am not proposing any requirement. Just thought it would be nice for the
charter to clarify this bullet. If you want simple progressive download,
you just need a file format like a container that can use with the new
codec. But, if you want a streaming functionality with trick modes, etc.,
the format has to support chunkability somehow.

The file that holds the content on the server could be one huge file or
several smaller files where each file holds one or more chunks. Dash
really does not care about that. IOW, chunking does not have to be
physical chunking. It could be all "virtual".

Sure.

Correct.

Nope. I hope what I meant is clear now from above.
