I'm in favour of adding the `--retry', but I'm not sure whether the --speed-limit / --speed-time is a good idea in general. This might help on some people's connections but make things worse for others.
For example, my office has a transparent proxy than analyzes every download for viruses. It tends to pause at the beginning of the download until the proxy has downloaded the whole file, and then give it to the requestor. I suspect this limit could cause curl to disconnect and retry unnecessarily.
