The IAR would be uploaded directly from the viewer.

This has nothing to do with an in-grid content delivery service.

But yes, this is probably really more for situations where upload cost can be absorbed, or where one is willing to take 
other steps to deal with it (e.g. in principle one could examine an IAR and generate an upload cost for assets that 
aren't already stored in the target asset service).
