Jeffrey E  Rodriguez commented on KNOX-618:
-------------------------------------------

It would be nice to include the header rewrite function  from KNOX-618 in release 13.
I am updating your patch to release 0.13.0.

> I recently ran into a situation where it would have been useful to have access to header values in the rewrite rules.  In particular it would be useful sometimes to API version with a header like this.
> {code}
>     <match pattern="{scheme}://{host}:{port}/api/{path=**}?{**}">
>         <rewrite template=""{scheme}://{host}:{port}/api/{$header[version]}/{path}?{**}""/>
>     </match>
> {code}
> As implied above the rewrite function plugin model seems like an excellent way to provide basic access to header information.
