I think that what you're saying is that you want to use --proxy as
some kind of mechanism to override normal DNS resolution. That sounds
good, but I'm not sure --proxy is the right option for that, I think
it's confusing because this really isn't about proxy but about DNS
resolution.
No, it is not that I *want* to use this particular hack.
I just mentionned it to indicate that fiddling around with the
url and header is most likely not the right level ...
I like the --resolve option. It does look like the cleanest way to
solve this problem (including certificate matching) is to add a
feature to Curl to override DNS resolution for a specified list of
domains, kind of like an in-process /etc/hosts alternative.
... indeed, as I indicated, doing something at
the "resolve" or connection level seems to be
a proper way.
and from the standpoint of documentation it is rather simple IMO.
