I can see how you have troubles doing this with libcurl without telling it to
speak to a proxy...

So yes, if you really want to do proxy-style URL requests with libcurl to a
host that is not a proxy and similar, such an option will most probably be
required. Funny how no one else ever needed this...

You up to providing a patch?
