Hey hey,

So, I got an interesting case for you: The gmail inbox atom feed:

> https://mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom

As it turns out, you need to do basic auth over https in order to read this feed. It looked like this library could delegate protocol to the request module, but it doesn't look like there's a way to pass credentials (such as custom headers).

This library looks sweet, dude. I'd make a pull request for you but I can't write coffeescript to save my life. :)
