Thank you for your contribution. Could you update your PR to be against the latest version of this library, therefore Play 3?

I will try to migrate to Play3 later, but I think we need an iterative version below Play2.9 to support users who are still using Akka

This is a tough decision, changing the underlying connector would be a major change requiring major release for Play 2.9 and I am not sure I want to do it for this library. Even Play framework itself is not going to provide much new features into 2.x version.

If you are considering using Play 2.9 (with the BSL-licensed Akka and Akka HTTP), we want to inform you that the Play core team has limited resources. You might want to consider becoming a Premium sponsor to help keep the 2.x line alive. Otherwise, if interest in the 2.x line declines, we may need to discontinue it at some point.

Since the current connector works fine (I am not aware of any major issues) and just limits new development and adding more features, it sounds legitimate to me not to backport them to old releases but rather focus on Play 3 and later.
