WARNING: the Flogs filter is used as a workaround to get additional context during other filters matches and as such, is not intended to get input from clients. Although it is possible and create usages, we recommend using Flogs as a "front" filter with caution, and at least not request returns from it, as this filter is not intended to give answers !
