I said I would research the possiblity of changing the socket factory by a custom one that would produce sockets capable of measuring times below the HTTP level (connection establishment, write time, latency, read time).
Some time ago, at Mike Stovers' suggestion, I looked at the possibility of using the Commons HTTP classes. A quick trial convinced me that the work involved was massive and well beyond the time that I could afford to contribute.
But if they will do what you require, I'd be prepared to help out.

Most of these objections were addressed by the Commons people. In addition, they really serve to justify the Commons HTTP project. There is also a Swiss effort that I looked at due to a requirement to be able to force URLConnections to time-out (now, I believe, addressed by Java.NIO).
In short: java.net was not designed to be extensible by common mortals,
Agreed. The original implementation was a bit of a hack; there are lots of bugs reported against it which Sun has been very reluctant to address.
and a Real Java Programmer(tm) is needed for the job :-)
Don't be so modest!
If you can come up with an idea to solve this (other than repackaging rt.jar -- that is too dirty even for me), I'll be happy to explore it.
See above.
