That would work. We already get the IP of a successful connection with

How about an option such as CURLOPT_IGNORE_SERVER_IPS to pass a comma-
separated list of addresses that should not be used for a connection?
(Another option that already uses a comma-seperated list of server names is
CURLOPT_NOPROXY.)
I like that!
It might be useful to have a CURLOPT_USE_SERVER_IPS as well, to force the
libcurl to use specific IP address(es), rather than having it use DNS
resolving and pick an arbitrary IP from the list of addresses returned by
DNS.
Isn't that pretty much what CURLOPT_RESOLVE already provides?
