No, I was actually just thinking that it doesn't make a lot of sense to have
a completely throwaway implementation packed into the main code base. On the
other hand, it's not clear to me that there's any "good" way to provide
default implementations of the data handlers that would actually be useful.

That was really just an aside though. The main issue was resolved by
replacing the dependency on RemoteContentFetcher on a simpler dependency
directly on the commons http client.
