I don't think it is correct even for FTP, and I'll explain why:

+ bool is_first_time = TRUE;

This function is called many times during a download so setting is_first_time
to true every time surely defeats its purpose.

I suggest you instead use the 'k->bodywrites' counter since that is increased
every time a piece of the "document body" is written/sent to the callback (and
it is set to zero before a transfer is started). So, when that is zero,
nothing has been sent to the callback yet.

Also, when this is added, it changes the behaviour of the library slightly and
I would like to have this fact added to the docs.
