> SLING-7140 added a feature to support redirects to external uri of a resource
> if available. This handled by StreamRendererServlet. See [1]. As per the
> current implementation, if there's a uri available, a redirect is done for a
> http HEAD request as well. This can be problematic for clients which expect
> the response as sent by the servlet as of now if the response is different
> from the redirected HEAD request.
> Would it be correct to handle the HEAD request *before* the redirect so that
> its current behavior is retained?
