Description
Netty is used as the foundation of a lot of client and server implementations. If we have generic support for monitoring HTTP requests, we'd already provide basic insight for lots of web frameworks.
One complication could be when Netty is used as the foundation of a Servlet container where we already instrument at the Servlet/Filter level.
That also doesn't solve context propagation for frameworks like Play which use Netty as the foundation but also have their own threading model.
