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?
