Boost.ASIO-based HTTP client library (like libcurl)

Question

I am looking for a modern C++ HTTP library because libcurl's shortcomings are difficult to work around by C++ wrappers. Solutions based on Boost.ASIO, which has become the de-facto C++ TCP library, are preferred.

The other day somebody recommended this on another thread:

I think this is as high-level as you will find, but I'm not sure if it's mature enough yet (I would say it probably is since they've proposed it for Boost inclusion).
