Yeah, I had thought that the curl implementation _was_ the default if you have curl. But we just build it by default, and you have to manually enable it. So I agree it has not gotten nearly as much testing as I had thought, and as you found, it diverges from the earlier implementation in quite a few areas.

So I think we would need to take any deprecation much more slowly than I had first thought (and your patches in the nearby thread are moving in a good direction).
