Should we export the HTTP client to make it easier for users to customize it? #35

Just asking, I don't have any use case in mind.

Maybe someone wants to use cookies? Or authenticating before the download? Not sure. I think it's difficult because of the way we set it up: the HTTP client handles the heavy lifting of parallelism, but we might have advanced users… idk.

Great point! Sounds like a legit use case to me. Let's open it and add this clarification to its comments.
