That something could have been our usual perl code to download needed file
as we have done before. wget is a 300 kB code size (stripped).

I agree the perl code we used may be feature limited in some situations.
Using wget could be a a way to simplify the perl download code we previously
had but we need a way to restrict download to only a selected list of URL.
And if wget is added, we would need to remove the perl code now unused.

Maybe only using chmod 0744 /usr/bin/wget, and using a helper to download
from web interface?
