will enable us to cascade async operations, which is necessary in order to
properly support DNS.  (For example, an HTTP request may have to redirect
to a new location and will have to perform a new DNS lookup, so we can't
just rely on doing the name lookup at the time of parsing the initial
URL).

Anything other than HTTP is probably broken right now; I'll fix the others
