Currently, we only support Continue and Pause actions, which is quite limiting.
Most notably, we require forwarding HTTP headers before processing HTTP body, which prevents building plugins that perform authorization based on contents of HTTP request body or completely consume requests and generate responses from within plugin (for which proxy_send_local_response is too limited).
Another use case is to decide whether buffer or not based on headers e.g. in Coraza WAF we only want to buffer and inspect body if certain content type.
