That's me! It works for me and my company.
It's worked fine for me as well.
I also don't quite see why the same backwards compatibility
requirements as for the rest of Phobos shouldn't apply here. If
libcurl is deemed to be an unacceptable dependency, then it
should be possible to provide an API-compatible reimplementation
for at least the parts not directly exposing the libcurl
interface.
