It's easy enough to calculate the response size after the temporary

How would it be different from your patch?

It's basically the same as your patch.
Just the storage method is different.

One reason I proposed this is that it would be a possible option for
HC to provide the headers.
I don't know if that would be acceptable, but if it is, then it would
be possible to drop the interceptor.
