is this parsing the human-readable html website? If so, this seems just as unstable. What if they add a newline between the filename.zip and the id?

Yes this would break it. It might be that this is more stable than the file IDs - the file IDs changed at least once since fetch_publication_data was added, but I don't think the html has. I think the only way to hermetically seal it is to tell Dryad to give individual files DOIs, or use a different service that does.

Fixes #165.
As documented there, individual file IDs are not permanent on Dryad. The strategy here is to determine these from the (permanent) DOI.
Could be a cleaner way to do this, comments welcome.
