Is it worth treating this in a similar vein to the allow_fail, and allow_defer settings of the redirect router. I mean, obviously you have to have these allows to allow those settings to work correctly, and you should probably default to allowing status codes, but it may well be a good idea to be able to restrict back to the defaults within the router. Also, I'd be inclined to suggest that 421 and 221 are special, mentioned elsewhere in the thread, and that for 421 in particular (I don't think you should be allowed to specify 221), this causes the subsequent connection close that a remote end should expect on seeing a 421. (I appreciate that you've already committed some code, and if I have some time this week, I'll be happy to produce the patch to do this). Sorry to create more work over this.
