Well... It will be another example of using openvrml-gtkplug. It will
also be a reasonable example of how to integrate libcurl with the
GLib/GTK+ main loop. But it will offer no respite from the relatively
complex implementation of openvrml::resource_istream in
openvrml-gtkplug. In other words, it won't be of too much help for
someone who, for example, wants to learn how to use libcurl with
openvrml in the same process.

So openvrml-player won't obviate the need to extend the sdl-viewer
example to use libcurl (in order to show people how to do that).
