Description
It would be great to be able to set arbitrary response headers in per-path, just as it is done with Access-Control-Allow-Origin for CORS.
The use case I'm thinking of, specifically, is to be able to set Cache-Control: public, no-transform to disallow html modification by intermediates such as Cloudflare (which adds a js beacon to track page views and the like)
However, this could open up other use cases such as Content-Security-Policy and whatnot.
I imagine this can be achieved with .kbp_config:
{
"version": "v1",
"per_path_configs": {
"/": {
"anonymous_permissions": "read",
"Content-Security-Policy": "default-src: 'none'",
"Cache-Control": "public, no-transform",
"Access-Control-Allow-Origin": "*"
},
}
}
As a side effect, this could allow setting values other than "*" for CORS headers.

Research direction
Start by locating the Keybase Pages handling for .kbp_config and per_path_configs, using the existing Access-Control-Allow-Origin behavior as the entry point. Verify how arbitrary header names and values would be validated and applied, then confirm that Cache-Control, Content-Security-Policy, and existing CORS responses are emitted for the configured path.
