I have a local fork of the CurlPlugin that supports all the HTTP methods (HEAD, PUT, DELETE etc), and allows any custom header that you need.

Contact me via email and I can send you the code (and yes, I should find the time to move these changes upstream).

Which means that HTTPS support can be added easily. Not so easy would be achieving the portability of HTTPS support among Smalltalk dialects.

It seems like a nicely robust library, and although not pure-Smalltalk, a great place to keep deferring to.

Swazoo has everything you need already there, just on server side. It has a complete request and response framework, which is needed for both server and client. It has streaming on both input and output side, which again can be used on the client as well. And the main advantage: it is portable across almost all Smalltalk dialects.
So, we just need someone to take some time and finish (so to speak) this client…
