I've never really considered the ncat item but yeah, that would make
sense. Nping TCP connect() mode could leverage it as well (that'd be
useful to measure latency and reliability of a given proxy chain for
instance).

Another couple items from todo/henri.txt[1]:
  - Add socks4a/socks5 support. This requires to figure out how to
enter the nsock proxy code w/o having the target IP address. No huge
technical blocker there though, only design choices to make.
  - Move the code which is shared with ncat to nbase (URL parsing code
for instance).
