> Map Resolver currently supports specifying a pattern to filter for allowed 
> keys in the map being resolved. I'd like a complementary feature to specify a 
> pattern to filter for excluded keys from the map being resolved. It may also 
> be beneficial to provide a similar option for excluded keys as full string 
> matches rather than always using a pattern.
> For an example use case, suppose I copy request HTTP header names and values 
> into the ThreadContext for every request. In Spinnaker microservices, this 
> includes custom headers like {{X-Spinnaker-Groups}} which contains a list of 
> groups the authenticated user belongs to which are filled in by the Fiat 
> microservice (used for integrating authentication and authorization with 
> various providers and providing a facade over Spring Security). If I want to 
> exclude this header from being logged, I can currently set a negative 
> lookahead pattern like {{(?i(?!x-spinnaker-groups))}} which works effectively 
> the same, but how many developers like reading regex incantations like these?
