But I guess this is just speculating about hte future. Maybe the best solution is to create a simple composable RequestProcessor for 1.2 and then see what the future might bring?
A new RequestProcessor in any form warrants its own point release. 1.2 is already scheduled for a move to commons-resources so this would have to wait until 1.3 at the earliest (if we can even agree on an implementation by 1.3).
