I saw on the 2020 poll an item about adding to libcurl a "read-like

I didn't find any detail on that feature.
Well, it was a question in a poll about it. It doesn't have to mean that it
actually exists...
But you can find an almost complete implementation of it in the fcurl
repository, which is a small layer of code on top of libcurl to offer a whole
set of fread()/fwrite() style functions:
https://github.com/curl/fcurl
It has been untouched for years since nobody seems to use it, we don't get any
feedback and nobody writes any pull requests for it. I've taken that as a
pretty strong sign that this is not an API many users are interested in.
-2) A step towards zero-copy libcurl (a topic much discussed!)
I don't think it will help with that...
