Hey all,

I'd like to be able to add filters for my bundles that register
servlets from other bundles.  So, for instance, I might have a filter
for decorating pages in a sitemesh bundle and another in filter for
gzipping responses published from another bundle.  Since there is no
way to know a priori what the startup order of the filters will be, I
need some way to tell Pax Web - and, by extension, the Extender
Whiteboard - that the gzip filter should be applied first and the
sitemesh one second, otherwise very bad things could happen if
sitemesh tries to decorate a page after it's been gzipped.  I thought
of doing away with using Pax Web Extender Whiteboard since I'm only
using it for registering servlets and replacing it with my own
whiteboard implementation that defines a few well know filter points
and allows for some well known filter processing points as well as
weighting, or ordering filters.

Would the filter ordering be something that is generally useful in Pax Web?

Thanks,
Rich
