+ Allow curl command lines issue a lot of request against services that limit
+ users to no more than N requests/second or similar. Could be implemented with
+ an option asking that at least a certain time has elapsed since the previous
+ request before the next one will be performed. Example:
+
+    $ curl "https://example.com/api?input=[1-1000]"; -d yadayada --after 500
