> Map Resolver currently supports specifying a pattern to filter for allowed keys in the map being resolved. I'd like a complementary feature to specify a pattern to filter for excluded keys from the map being resolved. It may also be beneficial to provide a similar option for excluded keys as full string matches rather than always using a pattern.
> For an example use case, suppose I copy request HTTP header names and values into the ThreadContext for every request. In Spinnaker microservices, this includes custom headers like {{X-Spinnaker-Groups}} which contains a list of groups the authenticated user belongs to which are filled in by the Fiat microservice (used for integrating authentication and authorization with various providers and providing a facade over Spring Security). If I want to exclude this header from being logged, I can currently set a negative lookahead pattern like {{(?i(?!x-spinnaker-groups))}} which works effectively the same, but how many developers like reading regex incantations like these?
