Hook for logging request?

[jrubinator]

I have a use case for logging some information about the request (what headers were actually sent). Does adding a hook/callback just before $handle->write_request($request); sound reasonable? If so, I can submit a patch for that.

@xdg - do you have any opinion on this?

Hi. I'm not actively doing Perl development on this module, so I have to abstain, as I wouldn't be responsible for reviewing or merging.

Ah, is @chansen the correct person to ask now?

[jrubinator]

@chansen any thoughts?

This isn't a vote one way or another, but just an observation -- adding hooks would make this module less tiny. LWP::UserAgent already supports hooks, so you might find your usecase better served there.

Another possibility could be intercepting the data written to the output handle, which would be a way to address debugging needs like #123.
