Description

In #26 we made the API lower level, exposing HTTP details, and unsurprisingly we received some feedback that it's leaky: https://github.com/aseigo/hexagon/commit/5991766b0db980acf1a0da1fab95d34046b18967#commitcomment-30019283 (thanks @aseigo!)

This issue is to collect more feedback and see if and how we want to tackle this.
