This leads me to believe that i could write a filter that sat at the  
head of the chain, which looked through all the filters in the chain,  
and if appropriate removed random ones through the chain.

I have a situation where i have a CGI which sometimes returns  
text/html, and sometimes returns text/csv, but IE chokes if the csv is  
gzipped by deflate.  I've had to disable deflate on ALL cgi's as a  
result, but this seems like i could just create a filter that runs on  
CGI's, that looks for a pnote that indicates that deflate should be  
taken out of the chain.

Is that correct?
