So the assumption is that curl has been there since forever, so 
its well tested. Anything new cannot be stable enough for 
everyday use?

If there's anything keeping dlang-requests from been integrated 
into Phobos (or a derivative), then lets report it as a bug...cus 
curl is not convenient to use without some abstraction layer.


HTTP is the most used protocol for everything. JavaScript is the 
most used language and pretty much everything done with 
JavaScript has HTTP involved.
