Web sockets in 11.4

While we're speculating, here's a crazy thought!

1. Agree with the developers to add a header section of say, a maximum of 100 bytes. Separated by ";".
2. An example header could be "site.com;/ireallydislikewebsockets.aspx;"

Then apply an iRule like this

when CLIENT_ACCEPTED {
    TCP::collect 100
}

when CLIENT_DATA {
    set host [getfield [TCP::payload 100] ";" 1]
    set uri [getfield [TCP::payload 100] ";" 2]
    Do something with the iRule    
}

What do you think? I agree that it's less than optimal, but when life gives you lemons... 🙂
