Well, while Lenny and Thiago supported this on a conceptual level I
didn't get any additional use cases where gzip excluded paths would be
a desired feature. Meanwhile, 1.39.0 Javamelody added a configuration
option for turning off gzipping and I see Howard has already removed
the contribution from ResponseCompressionAnalyzerImpl in 5.4. We can
always add it back in if somebody finds a convincing use case for the
feature.
