Description

Description: Due to legacy reasons we require the ability to regex rewrite some paths during a redirect procedure similarly how its done here.

Note:

Combining a redirect rule together with a rewrite rule does not work since you cant specify both at once.

Underlying envoy proxy supports this so I think its a matter of exposing the configuration?

Thanks, Nic
