1.12 have form functions use CURL handle argument
curl_formadd() and curl_formget() both currently have no CURL handle
argument, but both can use a callback that is set in the easy handle, and
thus curl_formget() with callback cannot function without first having
curl_easy_perform() (or similar) called - which is hard to grasp and a design
mistake.
The curl_formadd() design can probably also be reconsidered to make it easier
to use and less error-prone. Probably easiest by splitting it into several
function calls.

5.11 Chunked transfer multipart formpost
For a case where the file is being made during the upload is progressing
(like passed on stdin to the curl tool), we cannot know the size before-hand
and we rather not read the entire thing into memory before it can start the
upload.

Using the multi interface would also allow properly using parallel transfers
with HTTP/2 and supporting HTTP/2 server push from the command line.
18.5 provide formpost headers
Extending the capabilities of the multipart formposting. How about leaving
the ';type=foo' syntax as it is and adding an extra tag (headers) which
works like this: curl -F "coolfiles=@fil1.txt;headers=@fil1.hdr" where
fil1.hdr contains extra headers like
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=KOI8-R"

which should overwrite the program reasonable defaults (plain/text,
8bit...)
