I recently was dealing with pause/unpause, and the creation of a temporary buffer and memcpy on each pause was a little scary. Also, changing the size (16K) for max callback write size didn't work for me, and doing it via #define is not the best way.
I definitely see value in telling libcurl "these are the buffer and size for this easy handle". Just my 2 cents :)
Thanks,
