The curlrc would include the a header with a {{ domain }} like variable

Like:
header @path/{{domain}}.txt

Where the domain will be inferred by the given domain in the command.

I like this idea! Let me also mention that we have a similar idea listed in the TODO:

  https://curl.se/docs/todo.html#hostname-sections-in-config-files

It would get roughly the same thing with a syntax like this:

[domain]
  header @path/special.txt

I think both takes could be worth exploring. They have roughly the same challenge: they make it necessary to parse the config file (again?) after each URL has been retrieved, so that it knows the domain.
