If I specify a custom user agent for wget, eg "MyBot 1.0 (address@hidden)"
Will wget check this in robots.txt as well, if the bot was banned, or only
the general robot exclusions? Does wget check if "MyBot" is allowed to
crawl?
If not, this would be a nice feature.  If yes, it would be great to include
this info in the robots overview here https://www.gnu.org/software/wget
