My real case:
I want to use Clogger to log the authenticated user ($env["REMOTE_USER"]).
Clogger expects that it runs after an authentication middleware which adds
such env entry. However in my case I need to decide the "remote_user" in the
final Rack application so I need that changes done in env by the last Rack
application are visible for previous middlewares (Clogger).
Perhaps env shouldn't be used for this purpose, but what else? adding such
info in the response headers seem a hack to me, what about if I want to pass
an object or a hash rather than a single string?
