What about all the other options?

Add one, pull request it, and I'll merge it in!

Otherwise I'll just add them here and there as I begin to use jsURL in place of cURL and find that I need them.

Why?

curl on OS X doesn't send servername via sni when -k (--insecure) is used so I started copying over functionality that I use.
