today a lot of datasets, especially structured text data, are hosted in
portals that reply with "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently".
A classic example are the many and preciuous CSV and JSON files that you
have in github gist.

It would be great to have as feature the option to follow the link (as in
curl via "-L" option), both using the gdal/ogr /vsicurl/ via command line
and via the definition of a VRT – GDAL Virtual Format XML file.

Is this the right place where I can create a feature request?

As usual thank you very much
