 Replying to [comment:3 JohnLamansky]:
 > Even if Magpie used a remote_http() function like you mention, one would
 have to manually change the rss.php code to add the desired user-agent as
 a parameter for all remote_http() calls.

 At the time, I was thinking of the Plugin adding itself to the User agent
 via a filter in the function for all requests. Not too sure how that'd
 work in retrospect though.
