http-response add-headers doesn't work with the stats page about haproxy HOT 2 CLOSED

So after some discussion on the subject with Christopher, a good proposal seems to simply add a new stats directive to make the rule final and skip the rest of the evaluation (as is currently done), and by default we'd keep it running (as most users expect). For the rare ones seeing this interfere with their http-response rules, they would quickly notice the change when visiting their stats page and would thus be able to adjust the behavior using the new option, or just move the stats to a dedicated backend.

It is now possible since the 2.2 thanks to the http-after-response ruleset. This feature will not be backported in previous versions. So I guess we can close this issue. The 2.2 is a LTS version, so it seems reasonable to use it if someone really needs to rewrite responses generated by HAProxy.
