It would also be nice if there was an easy way to get at the HTTP headers
associated with a response. Maybe there is a way but I can't find it.
I'm trying to make nnrss do the right thing for feeds which use ETag [1]
and am fumbling through advising url-retrieve-synchronously to get the
necessary headers. Something like this:
(defadvice url-retrieve-synchronously (after map-save-headers)
"Save headers in nnrss-feed-headers."
;; FIXME: Somehow save-excursion didn't work.
;;(save-excursion
(let ((buffer (current-buffer)))
(switch-to-buffer ad-return-value)
(mail-narrow-to-head)
(setq nnrss-feed-headers
`(("Last-Modified" . ,(mail-fetch-field "Last-Modified"))
("ETag" . ,(mail-fetch-field "ETag"))))
(widen)
(switch-to-buffer buffer))))
