Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-3429:
------------------------------------

To keep backward compatible we could introduce a 2nd parameter for the 
exceptions

* {{removeHeaders(pattern, exceptionsPattern)}} remove one or more headers 
based on a pattern, skipping any which has been defined as exceptions. So if 
you just want to remove all headers, exception foo, then you can do, 
{{removeHeader(null, "foo")}} or maybe more readable {{removeHeaders("*", 
"foo")}}

Then in the JAXB model the exceptions is just another attribute, so its 
compatible
{code:xml}
<removeHeaders pattern="*" exceptions="foo"/>
{code}


> Extend DSL with more header filtering constructs

>             Project: Camel
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: camel-core
>    Affects Versions: 2.5.0
>            Reporter: Richard Kettelerij
>             Fix For: Future

>
> Currently the DSL offers the following methods:
> - {{removeHeader(name)}} which removes a single header
> - {{removeHeaders(pattern)}} remove one or more headers based on a pattern 
> (since 2.3)
> The attached patch extends the DSL with the following methods:
> - {{removeHeaders(name...)}} removes the headers in the given a vararg 
> parameter. 
> - {{removeHeadersExcept(pattern)}} removes all headers except for the ones 
> matching the given pattern (opposite of {{removeHeaders(pattern)}})
> - {{removeHeadersExcept(name...)}} removes all headers except for the ones in 
> the given vararg parameter (opposite of {{removeHeaders(name)}})
> The rationale for the removeHeadersExcept() method is that in many cases you 
> want to take a _defensive_ approach with regard to header propagation.
> Sometimes you may want to remove _every_ header on the current message, in 
> that case just call removeHeadersExcept() with no arguments.
> In other cases you want to propagate only the "id" header received through 
> the servlet/jetty component (as a query parameter). In that case call
> removeHeadersExcept("id") to preserve the "id" header, while preventing other 
> query parameters (and standard HTTP headers) to flow down your route.
