Dan Koepke commented on THRIFT-2423:
------------------------------------

This is a critical feature for enterprise users and anywhere else that uses SOA 
to scale development across teams. Headers enable tooling to seamlessly trace 
performance and other data across the boundaries between services and teams. 
This lets tools understand how a single request is impacted by the performance 
and scalability of multiple services without every downstream client needing to 
be aware of this metadata. 

Without headers, each user/team is forced to implement their own solution to 
passing this metadata as part of the payload, killing the ability to have 
standardized tooling and seriously diminishing one of the major benefits that 
something like Thrift is supposed to bring. The lack of headers is a huge 
detriment to Thrift adoption for advanced SOA users.
