Request a snippet be created for later download

Description

As it's expensive to create snippets (either by time, region or both) it would be useful to request a snippet, and then be notified later that the content is available for download. This would only be for download, rather than for playback.

Could be notification by email rather than a web client interaction.

Use case we have is that we may allow access to a MP4 compressed video but allow request for high quality clips for users like production companies.

BFI use case - Digital Preservation Infrastructure Workstation - you're still going to work on the file in Premiere, but it greatly reduces the amount of data transferred if you can ask for a segment via a standardised format (e.g., 10 minutes of the 6 hr movie).

Has to wait for a robot to fetch the master, transcoding etc - but is a big bandwidth reduction.
