So you are just trying to say that data and meta-data are processed
separately? I'm not really sure what this adds as far as the end-user
is concerned.
Not so much anything to do with metadata, as trying to explain that
the data/filter axis is orthogonal to request processing. Don't you
think that's helpful in visualising what filters are all about?
You're doing the writing, so do what you think is clearest. But I think
"request processing" means "everything involved in turning an HTTP
request into an HTTP response", which is almost everything in httpd.
What I think you are talking about is something like hooks versus
filters, which is really an implimentation detail that I wouldn't put in
an end-user doc.
