The patch that I have provided lets Copy recognize protocols other than ftp as well.

If we are having the vision of a unified Copy/Get/Ftp, then the first/easiest consolidation would be the Copy & Get one. Get is so much like copy except that it copies a file from a url. Why maintain separate tasks for near identical functions? This patch provides all that Get provides and as you noted, filterset, mapper, etc. as well.
