--- Comment #24 from drew at sealedabstract.com ---
We use NSURLProtocol to actually use a non-HTTP(S) wire protocol.  It's more efficient than the traditional stuff and provides a real UX improvement for various classes of captive native/web applications.

A lot of the usecases in this thread could (in theory) be resolved by new API surface–content blocking, cookies, etc could all be solved by new API.

However, for folks who actually need to intercept the requests themselves, the existing API was very good, and it's a real shame to see it go.
