+1 I agree to remove the compression and concatenation and just output the 
raw link.

The few additional request happen only if the file is not in a browser cache 
(should rarely happen with CDN) and only impacts high load sites.

High load sites should have the resources to tune their setup by fetching, 
compressing and concatenating external files and to configure some 
additional TS or even hack an extension. Otherwise they should think about 
their business model.

We should tune TYPO3 CMS for the generic use cases and leave easy to solve 
problems for high load sites to the specialized integrators and developers.
