Description:
  At least for http, zypp shouldn't download a file which already is
  (unchanged) in its meta-data cache again. This will most probably need
  to make the media back-end aware of the raw cache. Also, this feature
  can be implemented keeping the rpm file caching in mind (FATE
  #302159).

  Crucial functionality to further improve the stack.

  This can be fixed if we use Fetcher on commit and set the right cache
  paths.

+ Critical enhacement, will make zypp lots of faster and more importantly
+ friendly with the mirror infraestructure.
