Drupal core has the ability to swap out the way drupal_http_request works. httprl uses this capability in order to swap out how calls are made. It would be great if we could have a developer way of swapping out the way the current built in curl method works. This could be something set on the admin form as to which function to use if an API function exists for it.

I don't like adding developer related stuff to the admin panel. As many users don't know what curl is. Better to adopt the curl sending to drupal_http_request and that will automatically make it possible to swap out and change the sending mechanism. So patch against 2.0 is welcome
