I approve of this idea and it can be implemented using the rather recent
CURLFORM_CONTENTHEADER option as brought to us by Marcus Webster.
Thus, this would be a purely client-side change.
This is also a good opportunity for someone who wants to join the project and
have a go at a first curl source code change. Personally, I'm up to my ears
with work so this doesn't qualify to enter my list of things to do within the
nearest weeks.
