Ah ha ha... emacs-w3m already has the extra information from its GET,
but just doesn't show it to the user!
$ GET -PSU https://api.couchsurfing.org/
GET https://api.couchsurfing.org/
User-Agent: lwp-request/6.03 libwww-perl/6.04
401 Unauthorized
{"error":"Failed to authenticate user, please log in and try again","_headers":{"Etag":"d91e7cb1ebf91bf64f11e3909bbd7d4be2e0ab14","Last-Modified":null}}00:57 1 ~$
Even plain w3m -dump shows more:
$ w3m -dump https://api.couchsurfing.org/
{"error":"Failed to authenticate user, please log in and try again","_headers":{
"Etag":"d91e7cb1ebf91bf64f11e3909bbd7d4be2e0ab14","Last-Modified":null}}
So the question is shouldn't emacs-w3m reveal the extra information from
the GET. I say yes!
