Comment (by santosj):

 Patch, I'm working on will add support for chunked transfer-encoding, so
 1.1 should be supported within !WordPress, instead of just 1.0. Some
 servers I've seen want to send 1.1 headers back when 1.0 headers are sent.

 Patch, will also move {{{$body}}} and {{{$headers}}} parameters into the
 {{{$args}}} parameter and will update the various areas where the HTTP API
 is used currently.

 Patch will also fix {{{WP_Error}}} people are having with not being
 connected to the Internet.

 I'm also building a HTTP API test suite that will hopefully find and fix a
 lot of the issues.

 The Patch will be pretty massive, as it is already. I'll upload the HTTP
 API test suite when I'm done.
