But the persistence seems not usable. I cannot specify a file to libcurl, as

Would it be an idea to let the hosting application provide some sort of
persistence callbacks? Or is there already such a thing?
I've considered providing a way to store the hsts cache as something else than
a file, perhaps with a callback - which would match up fine with a
corresponding API to preload a set of host names (== load the cache from a
custom place).
I do however ponder on leaving that idea for "later", unless someone speaks up
and has a real use case for it already. This, because I suspect most
applications will manage fine to without custom cache persistance and just
preloading a list of host names on startup that it *knows* are HTTPS-only.
