One thing from rfc6455, ch. 5.4:

"An intermediary MUST NOT change the fragmentation of a message if
      any reserved bit values are used and the meaning of these values
      is not known to the intermediary."


which I read as: if you want to use libcurl as an intermediary, it needs
to expose the frames and its bits.

Since libcurl never will do any semantic interpretation of the frames, I
would always regard it as an "intermediary".
