We shouldn't kick "features" at this stage. Not talking about removing curl stream wrappers but not making it look stable or add constants that could give this feeling. If there is really an interest in a curl stream wrapper (for new readers, we are talking about using curl as a replacement for the php's stream implemenation, for fopen and other file_get_contents, not the curl_* functions), then it can be done in PECL and see if it stands more than a couple of months :) Cheers, -- Pierre @pierrejoye
