Hi

a very interesting proposition indeed.

But I wonder if a new step is the best solution?
A new step is easier to implement, but is it really practical in =20
daily use?

How about overloading the exisiting configuration option saveResponse =20=

from
its present boolean yes/no to a level-based concept, as we know it =20
from, e.g, log4j

For example:
saveResponse=3Dno  -> as today
saveResponse=3Dyes -> as today
saveResponse=3Ddebug -> as today, plus according to your proposal in a =20=

2nd file


What do you think?
