is_url_superb prevents downloading from intranet domains

[chris-t-reilly]

The is_url_superb package throws an error when dealing with domains defined on the local intranet (example .local domains). Can I suggest/contribute a validateURL option?

[sindresorhus]

Exposing that would be leaky abstraction.

@kevva I see no reason for doing such a strict check on the input. Maybe add a loose mode option in is-url-superb that download could use which allowed any kind of domain?

[chris-t-reilly]

Yes, that's much better API-wise.

[kevva]

Would probably need to add it in url-regex first.
