[web-devel] [Yesod] Next version of WAI: cleaning house

[Greg Weber]

When a request hits a handler, it will already have gone through the
middleware, so it only seems possible to alter how the response is handled
at that point.
If you want different middleware for different routes, that is something
that must be handled at the routing level, so it seems out of the scope of
WAI.

But if you explain your use case on the Yesod mail list we can try and come
up with a more convenient solution.
I do have a WAI middleware that checks routes that might benefit from this.
