OK, I'm trying to come up with some naming convention for this
approach. After some thinking and tinkering, I've come to this
proposal on how to switch text/binary mode on the HTTP client:

http.setMode(Http.BINARY);
http.setMode(Http.TEXT);

My backup proposals being:

http.useBinaryMode();
http.useTextMode();

or:

http.setBinaryMode();
http.setTextMode();

any other proposals?
