I'm currently using a lifecycle rule to convert uploaded objects from standard to Infrequent Access (IA) storage class. It would be nice to upload to IA directly and avoid the extra cost of converting from standard to IA. Amazon's FAQ page says this can be done by setting STANDARD_IA in the x-amz-storage-class header in the PUT request.

How do I get wal-e to do this?

You'll have to write a patch to WAL-E, and add another configuration flag.
