I'd recommend using Zend_Http_Client. That allows you to mock it for
testing. The Curl adapter for the HTTP client is now in trunk and
releases with 1.8.0, which will give you the flexibility you need as
well. If need be, you can even limit the adapters it accepts to the Curl
and Mock adapters, though if you can allow any adapter, that would be
preferred.

What "limits" do you see to using Zend_Http_Client, btw?
