None of these can really be classified as "bugs" rather then
functionality enhancement requests, and this is something
I'm not sure I want to do this close to the second beta.

BTW, one thing I'm sure I *don't* want to change -- handling
of 20x codes. If you want to handle 201/206/whatever, then
just handle them. With some __getattr__ trickery, you can
have a class that handles all http_error_20x errors, so this
is *easy* for 3rd party urllib2 extensions to add.

Regarding explicitly determining the command: just put the
command inside the request object, and use it in your
own HTTPHandler/HTTPSHandler. This may be done in the next
version of urllib2 (for 2.2). At that time I might also add
the feature that other encodings (not just
application/x-www-form-urlencoded, but also
multipart/form-data) will be supported.
