I would agree with Heiko, Curl is often used by admins in their shell
scripts. This makes their scripts portable.
Is there an overhead to supporting curl ?

Hello Ladislav,
No 'reasoning' as such at this point, and no decisions taken yet. We
are currently discussing the future of domain management especially over
HTTP and I need to understand how important tools like this are.
We originally had support for standard HTTP clients on the requirements
list, just need to validate now if it was a valid requirement ;-)

then, I use curl for debugging the tool. It's immensely useful and I would hate losing
