Since --head implies that the body is not saved, we can actually make this work

Eh, no. I was not thinking right. It still needs to save the headers in that 
final name that it will not know until several headers have already arrived. So 
not *that* simple.

I was not asking for an enhancement, rather only for the simplest,
quietest way to extract filename-effective for use in a second
call to curl.

I have been using a read-only output-dir to do this.

Basically what we need to do is to make the tool keep the initial set of 
headers in memory first before it has decided what file name to use, then save 
all the headers in the file name once it knows. That would fix this limitation.
