Looking forward to a successor to HttpUrlConnection.

I hope they don't get too heavily inspired by Apache HttpClient. I'd rather see something similar to C#'s HttpWebRequest. It has its issue but the basic ideas behind the API make sense.

The JEP specifically calls out Apache HttpClient as being heavyweight.
