Hello and welcome to the curl project!

A primary reason I insisted on making the current implementation for the curl
tool and not for libcurl, is the fact that it is "only" a client on top of
HTTP, and as such libcurl can be used as-is and does not need changing.

If we are still talking about IPFS-over-HTTP then I believe this situation
stands. If you want an IPFS-over-HTTP library you can make one on top of
libcurl.

Am I wrong and if so, how and why?
