Description
There has been a need to alter routes programmatically. The current way is hackish by either messing with properties before loading to using GlobalFilters. It would be nice to have an easy way to do this similar to framework's BeanPostProcessor.
See this PR for one workaround https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-gateway/pull/2848
#2169 is a prerequisite so routes don't change after accepting requests.

Research direction
Start by reading the workaround in PR #2848 and the prerequisite described in issue #2169, then inspect how routes are loaded and how GlobalFilters currently affect them. Done means providing a supported mechanism to post-process routes programmatically without changing routes after requests are accepted.
