SRV records Parallel transfers for the curl tool
----------- ------------------------------------
How to find services for specific domains/hosts. This will require several new command line options to enable and control.
Improve 1. switch to creating a list of all the transfers first before any transfer
------- is done
2. make the transfers using the multi interface
3. optionally fire up more transfers before the previous has completed
1. curl -h output (considered overwhelming to users). Option to refuse HTTPS => HTTP redirects
----------------------------------------
2. We have > 200 command line options, is there a way to redo things to Possibly as a new bit to `CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION` ?
simplify or improve the situation as we are likely to keep adding
features/options in the future too.
3. Perform some of the clean up from the TODO document, removing old Option to let CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST be overridden on redirect
definitions and such like that are currently earmarked to be removed years -------------------------------------------------------------
ago.
(This is a common problem for people using `-X` and `-L` together.)
Possibly as a new bit to `CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION` ?
Hardcode “localhost”
--------------------
No need to resolve it. Avoid a risk where this is resolved over the network
and actually responds with something else than a local address. Some operating
systems already do this. Also:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dnsop-let-localhost-be-localhost-02
Consider "menu config"-style build feature selection
----------------------------------------------------
Allow easier building of custom libcurl versions with only a selected feature
where the available features are easily browsable and toggle-able ON/OFF or
similar.
