Hrvoje, it looks like it would take much less time to implement something like --disregard-external-redirects than to explain everyone that "the feature is not yet available". If you're up to implementing this, I'd suggest a supplemental --store-external-redirects option, which would create a .htaccess file with external redirects, which would be EXTREMELY useful for mirroring HUGE sites (like www.gnu.org). Luck, Peter. ps: This letter was sent personaly to Hrvoje by error, sorry Hrvoje.
