@demobox Both HPCS and Google Cloud Storage have this behavior. Given that HPCS is ultimately Swift, I won't be surprised if there are other Swift-based providers that have similar problems. By default the property is false and the filter is not applied -- so there should be no impact on any existing applications. Even if the filter is applied, there's no impact on JDK6 since JDK6 anyways has broken handling for the Expect header.
The high-level bit is that with JDK7, you can easily hang your applications against one of these blobstores and the filter gives us a way to work around that. --- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds/pull/65#issuecomment-20813173
