I should have stated more clearly that this use case is "out of scope"
for Beast (an expression getting a lot of use lately). This is an
example of higher level functionality. Specifically you're asking for
something like "C++ Requests" (i.e. Python Requests for C++). This
will be the subject of another library that I will propose, using
Beast of course.

Thanks
