+  5.6 What about Keep-Alive or persistant connections?
+
+  This is closely related to issue 5.3. Since libcurl has no real support
+  for doing multiple file transfers, there's no support for Keep-Alive or
+  persistant connections either.
+
+  This is of course subject to change as soon as libcurl gets support for
+  multiple files. Feel free to join in and make this change happen sooner!
