Bumping this as I was pointed to 
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/wget-dev/2022-09/msg00008.html

"TL;DR the wget2 project is willing to help and a multi API may be easy to 
implement. But someone has to write down the exact needs. "

Our needs are exactly what the curl multi interface offers with respect to 
curl_multi_fdset.
We have our own scheduler want to call select/poll on the (network) fds.
The curl API is not bad in that regards. In fact I think it is good. And if 
wget could offer a similar API little must change in our code as well.

A secondary requirement would be access to the TLS metadata/backend. But I yet 
have to check what wget2 here actually provides. The extent we require this is 
this one function:
