Looks great, Sven!  I've applied this to SVN.  The only remaining
issue is documentation.  People won't use this function if they don't
know about it.

I have checked the XML source to the Nmap Scripting Engine
documentation (http://nmap.org/nse/) into nmap/docs/scripting.xml.  It
would probably be hard for you to build it now, but maybe you could
look at the nse-api section format and add a similar sort of section
for your HTTP library?  If you don't know DocBook, you can probably
get the picture by reading the other NSE Library sections.  If you
send me a patch for scripting.xml, I'll check it in, recompile, and
update the article on the website.

Thanks,
Fyodor
