one thing is the idle-timeout property; would a patch adding that to
souphttpsrc be acceptable?

another thing is the range-requests that are being tried on servers that don't
support them, and then erroring out; I think it'd be better to check for the
Accept-Ranges header, and not try the range-request if it's not supported, and
getting "Forbidden"; I can handle these at a higher level, but afaics only by
doing a strcmp for "Forbidden", which isn't very nice.
