Haven't we all done so 8-).  This certainly is a feature lacking from
Sun's APIs (which are far too bloated on the other side, of course).

Many thanks for the offer, Peter.

It would be at least the third implementation of it under the Apache
umbrella - I think, there is one in Tomcat and the Httpclient package
in Jakarta-Commons certainly has one.  Instead of putting in yet
another one, we should rather use one, that is already there (and
improve it as necessary) IMHO.
