Parallel transfers for the curl tool
This will require several new command line options to enable and control.
- switch to creating a list of all the transfers first before any transfer is done
- make the transfers using the multi interface
- optionally fire up more transfers before the previous has completed
Option to refuse HTTPS => HTTP redirects
Possibly as a new bit to CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION ?
Option to let CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST be overridden on redirect

Hardcode “localhost”
No need to resolve it. Avoid a risk where this is resolved over the network and actually responds with something else than a local address. Some operating systems already do this. Also: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-dnsop-let-localhost-be-localhost-02
Consider "menu config"-style build feature selection
Allow easier building of custom libcurl versions with only a selected feature where the available features are easily browsable and toggle-able ON/OFF or similar.
