Hmm, looks like this was recently added! That's good news, prevents a
lot of other apps from breaking.

Now, as for the switch to ch.boye entirely, this was something I
discussed with Mozilla. Since they were including the lib anyway, they
thought that migrating to it was a good idea. My initial idea to this
was to wait until [1]  was resolved so that we could move to the
official apache supported lib. And it looks like it is!
Refer [1] & [2]. I should notify Mozilla of this development and try to
get the entire project shifted to this, they would definitely like it.

Thanks for the update hc, you might want to look at [3] as well, they
have alternate solutions to including "org.apache.http.legacy".
