How hard would it be to make cddb.el get the CDDB records through
HTTP?  Via a proxy?

Dammit.  There were other things I was supposed to be doing tonight.

CAVEATS:
  1. It works for me.  Using galette, it grabs the info for the Out of 
     Sight sound track, and retrieves the record.  I don't have a local 
     database, so my regression testing was limited to retrieving that 
     same CD through a direct socket connection.
  2. The code isn't the prettiest in the world.  See especially line
     442.  I'm also not particularly fond of the name of
     cddb-get-rest, nor of the way I determine whether or not I should 
     call it.
  3. Note that the cddb-hosts variable has changed format for all
     types of servers.
  4. It does NOT implement the CDDB encoding for weird characters, but 
     I don't think it needs to, unless they come up with a category
     name that can't go in a URL.

Matt
