Right. And you also can't assume that the context that passed the brigade down the filter stack still exists by the time the brigade reaches the last filter. It's a safe assumption in httpd-2.0, where the brigade is passed as a synchronous function call, but it's not valid for apps in general (potentially including future Apache versions) where the brigade may be queued up for asynchronous processing by an I/O completion thread.
