And `read_delim()` has lots of other useful features, e.g. not converting character to factor. It would be great to exploit all of that when parsing the content of requests in `httr`. Do you have any plans to switch over to `readr::read_delim()` when MIME type is `text/csv` or `text/tab-separated-values`?\r\n\r\nContext: I want to bring Google Sheets into R in a way that's as compatible as possible with those other packages, with minimal fuss under the hood. If `text/csv` content was parsed with `readr::read_csv()`, that would go a long way. (I realize I can do this already by setting `as = \"text\"` and parsing myself with `read_csv()`.)"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/hadley/httr/issues/comments/105230534","html_url":"https://github.com/hadley/httr/issues/239#issuecomment-105230534","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/hadley/httr/issues/239","id":105230534,"user":{"login":"hadley","id":4196,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/4196?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/hadley","html_url":"https://github.com/hadley","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hadley/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hadley/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hadley/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hadley/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hadley/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hadley/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hadley/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hadley/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hadley/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-05-25T13:20:03Z","updated_at":"2015-05-25T13:20:03Z","body":"Yes - I also need to replace `XML` with `xml2`.
