Currently HttpClient provides a partial implementation of HttpURLConnection.
I saw that. But it seems to be more like a, er, esquisse, than a full blown implementation of a protocol handler [1].
The problem is (at least in my opinion) that HttpURLConnection is so badly broken that this hardly makes a lot of sense to simulate its behaviour.
Right... I'm not interested in replicating HttpURLConnection implementation quirks, but rather in a consistent API.
So far nobody has felt compelled to step in and provide a plug-in HttpURLConnection replacement based on HttpClient code
Bummer :/
Providing a more solid, but API compatible, implementation build on top of Common's HttpClient would be a killer in my opinion :)
Oh, well...
