curl the next few years - perhaps
=================================
Roadmap of things Daniel Stenberg wants to work on next. It is intended to
serve as a guideline for others for information, feedback and possible
participation.
HTTP/3
------
See the [QUIC and HTTP/3 wiki page](https://github.com/curl/curl/wiki/QUIC).
ESNI (Encrypted SNI)
--------------------
See Daniel's post on [Support of Encrypted
SNI](https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2019-03/0000.html) on the mailing list.
HSTS
----
Complete and merge [the existing PR](https://github.com/curl/curl/pull/2682).
Parallel transfers for the curl tool
------------------------------------
This will require several new command line options to enable and control.
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
Option to refuse HTTPS => HTTP redirects
----------------------------------------
Possibly as a new bit to `CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION` ?
Option to let CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST be overridden on redirect
-------------------------------------------------------------
(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.
