Should we consider interoperability with std.path too?

I worked on http protocol, and I don't think that's will be a big 
issue. Http client side is not so complex if you need a working 
subset. I think we don't need gzip compression in first release, 
for example.

+1 for an oauth module. It would be very useful to work with 
third party api (facebook, google, etc ...) and to write api too! 
However I think it depends on http(s) module.
