   > > I'm not denying the utility here, but I'm not 100% clear on how this 
addresses #25018. Could you elaborate on how this technique can be used to work 
with short-lived credentials?
   > 
   > Of course. What I did to work with short-lived tokens is create a new 
header class, something resembling:

   > ```
   > class OauthTokenHeader extends BasicHeader {
   >     OIDCIDToken accessToken;
   > 
   >     ...
   > 
   >     @Override
   >     public String getValue() {
   >         if (accessToken.isExpired()) {
   >             accessToken.renew();
   >         }
   >         return String.format("Bearer %s", accessToken.getToken());
   >     }
   > }
   > ```

   > Since the Elasticsearch RestClient will add the `defaultHeaders` on each 
outgoing request, it will invoke `getValue` on every request, giving the 
opportunity to check if the token has expired and if so, renew it.
   
   
   Aha! Very nice 😊  I think this kind of detail might be non-obvious to many 
users who might want to accomplish the same.  Could you please add this example 
to the docstring for `withDefaultHeader` as an example for how someone might 
use it?
