I don't know, I'm asking...

I was wondering why registering a proxy handler is different than a
regular registered proc.  Do they have to be different?

The main difference seems to be that you can register a proxy for a
protocol, i.e. http or https, but you don't have that option with
regular registered procs.

correct

Is this an important distinction to make though?  Registered procs can
still check the protocol, manually, if they care.

right

Re having to register for each method, that also is sometimes a
problem for registered procs. Maybe allowing something like:

  ns_register_proc * /* callback

Where the only supported symbol is '*', meaning 'default, if no more
specific method is registered'.  Perhaps that's too confusing --
people will expect full glob support.  I don't think glob support is
possible, or even desirable here.  Url handlers are supposed to be
deterministic, only one will match some URL (unlike filters).

Agree, i will take a look. but glob does not work with url-specific hashes and we want to keep them, they are very fast
