As I said, I don't want to use that name, because it implies more comprehensive support for curl than I intend to provide in the library. As well, there are other packages that provide a front end to curl.Then how about "external-http-client"? That says it is a client for HTTP using an external program, but doesn't mention curl by name.
Since the bikeshed is in full swing: IMHO both 'curl' and 'external-http-client' are not great options because using curl (or any external lib or program) to accomplish the goal is a means to an end, or perhaps even a downside of this package, rather than its end goal (which is, I'm guessing, to provide a nicer and reliable API for making HTTP requests).
