I see your point.

Yes, I agree.
However, I did provide a patch to obsolete the Netscape code, as a
special case. Please let me know if that patch should be installed or
not -- either way is fine with me.
Once we have a decision on that, I think we should close this
particular bug as wontfix. Perhaps we should also look over to see if
there are any other bug reports which deserve closing too, since any
efforts are probably better spent improving the with-fetched-url
branch.
Best regards,
