  "New buffer into which the retrieval will take place.
Sometimes while retrieving a URL, the URL library needs to use another buffer

(defun url-retrieve (url callback &optional cbargs)
  "Retrieve URL asynchronously and call CALLBACK with CBARGS when finished.
URL is either a string or a parsed URL.

CALLBACK is called when the object has been completely retrieved, with
the current buffer containing the object, and any MIME headers associated
with it.  It is called as (apply CALLBACK STATUS CBARGS).
STATUS is a list with an even number of elements representing
what happened during the request, with most recent events first,
or an empty list if no events have occurred.  Each pair is one of:

\(:redirect REDIRECTED-TO) - the request was redirected to this URL
\(:error (ERROR-SYMBOL . DATA)) - an error occurred.  The error can be
signaled with (signal ERROR-SYMBOL DATA).

Return the buffer URL will load into, or nil if the process has
already completed (i.e. URL was a mailto URL or similar; in this case
the callback is not called).

The variables `url-request-data', `url-request-method' and
`url-request-extra-headers' can be dynamically bound around the
request; dynamic binding of other variables doesn't necessarily
take effect."
;;; XXX: There is code in Emacs that does dynamic binding
;;; of the following variables around url-retrieve:

;;; url-confirmation-func, url-cookie-multiple-line,
;;; url-cookie-{{,secure-}storage,confirmation}
;;; url-standalone-mode and url-gateway-unplugged should work as
;;; usual.  url-confirmation-func is only used in nnwarchive.el and
;;; webmail.el; the latter should be updated.  Is
;;; url-cookie-multiple-line needed anymore?  The other url-cookie-*
;;; are (for now) only used in synchronous retrievals.
