 Replying to [comment:3 dd32]:
 > I expect there could be compatibility issues with some edge-case things
 we currently support - URL Blocking / Cookie handling for example, but if
 we have to include some minimal handling of those within a compat
 wrapper.. I'm good with that if it reduces our overall maintenance burden.

 I don't think these ones should be too hard, since they're mostly at a
 higher level than the actual HTTP requests.

 > A note on https://github.com/rmccue/Requests-WPHTTP - That's written to
 add Requests as a transport provider to our existing WP_HTTP classes, if
 we were to adopt it, we'd instead rip out our existing stuff, and add a
 compat wrapper in it's place instead.

 Indeed; everything after the `pre_http_request` can be replaced with what
 I have in Requests-WPHTTP (keeping the `pre` filter, of course).
