Sure, that could be done if I had several years of free time and if I
wouldn't be bored reading and implementing dozens of RFC standards.
Properly supporting protocols (this is definitely not what HTTPSocket
and FTPClient do) like FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS, SCP, SFTP, TFTP,
TELNET, DICT, LDAP, LDAPS and FILE means a lot of work.
