[ Boy, this macro looks awfully deeply indented.
  We need to rewrite this to fit into the usual 80 columns.  ]

That actually looks very good [it would also need to change the other
url-insert-file-contents in that macro, of course].

Eli, do you think this could also be a fix for bug#34909?

E.g. something like the patch below?
