Re: [platform-dev] Concerns about org.eclipse.ecf.provider.filetransfer.

This assumes that the problem really is httpclient's fault, which is 
kind of questionable given how widely used that library is. I'd also be 
concerned about all the problems such as proxy authentication and so on 
that have been carefully ironed out over the years that would need to 
start from scratch.   Also, perhaps we'd lose many features, such as a 
connection pool to speed things up.   It's a big open question...
