I have this same general feeling, but pretty much all of the reviews I found when I went looking for specific examples included at least some significant coding-standard, documentation, and test coverage problems.  If we can find more specific examples, perhaps we can prevent this from recurring.
I was mostly thinking about the persistent connection functionality for
twisted.web.client.Agent.

Maybe Twisted would benefit more from having that functionality in place,
than having the super-perfect API between Agent and HTTP parser.

I agree.
