I think m-c has a benefit that existing scripts could be adjusted to take
advantage of it with very little extra editing. That's one of the primary
beauties of it. Another being that we don't have to create much new syntax or
anything. It'll basically be like using curl normally, but with some added
super powers like easier use of persistent connections etc.

I used the rest of your ideas and expanded the wiki page:

Thanks!
