Description

If we look at Sleuth & Boot tracing Baggage features comparison we're still missing two.

  • Local Baggage - local baggage means baggage available within this JVM but one that does not get propagated over the wire
  • Tagged Baggage - tagged baggage means baggage that automatically gets added as a tag

Research direction

Start by comparing the linked BraveBaggageConfiguration sections for Local Baggage and Tagged Baggage in Spring Cloud Sleuth. Then locate Spring Boot's corresponding tracing configuration and determine how both features should be supported; done means local baggage stays within the JVM and tagged baggage is automatically added as a tag.
