It certainly would be nice if we can do that ...sounds like a good
requirement to have.

sorry.. 

so the callout protocol should be application agnostic. Otherwise we will
need patch it up for every new protocol (RTSP, SMTP and others) or its
updates. And yes, I believe we can make it application agnostic.

The question is whether the callout protocol itself needs "to 
understand HTTP", or whether the application logic can be build around 
a generic callout protocol.
