If it is just about release numbers, let us call it HttpClient 3.0

Amen.  I'm not sure how much point there is in a 2.1 release if there's 
not allowed to be *any* API breakage.  Maybe we should freeze the 2.0 
stream and just put out 2.0.1, etc. bug fix releases and call the 
current main trunk 3.0 so that we can clean up some of this stuff.

I think it might still pay to do some of it gradually, like the current 
exception fixes in "3.0" and the removal of the IOException inheritance 
in "4.0" so that the transitions are easuer.  But I don't think we 
should be striving for 100% API compatibility in the next release.
