Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I can see that Gateway can encode/decode Response by gzip (ModifyResponseBodyGatewayFilterFactory). Can the same transformation be added for the Request?
Describe the solution you'd like
Implement the same functionality for the Request (maybe in ModifyRequestBodyGatewayFilterFactory ).

Research direction
Start with ModifyRequestBodyGatewayFilterFactory.java and compare its request handling with the gzip-related logic in ModifyResponseBodyGatewayFilterFactory.java. Trace how the request body is transformed before forwarding, then verify that gzip-encoded requests are decompressed for downstream handling without changing other request behavior.
