Research direction

Start by tracing the beforeRender callback and how cached responses handle status and headers. Verify where the requested location value is read and propagated; done means a cached 301 response includes its Location header. No file or test path is named in the issue.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

There is currently no way to pass in a Location: header in the beforeRender. This therefore breaks a cached 301 response, as the status is set to 301, but the Location isn't set.

Need to be able to:

done(err, {body: fields[0], status: fields[1], location: fields[2]});
