I'd like TextFile to be considered.  

I'd also really like Michael Rueger and other networking-code-savvy
folks to take a look at the HTTPClient package; it's quite a bit more
sophisticated than the HTTP-client in-image..  I'd really like to see
this package used as the basis for a new in-image HTTPClient class.
