Guava, the best approach is to create an [issue][] (or comment on an existing
issue if there is one) requesting the feature and describing specific use cases
for it.

If the feature has merit, it will go through a thorough process of API design
and review. Any code should come after this.

### Choosing between application and network interceptors

Each interceptor chain has relative merits.

**Application interceptors**

 * Don't need to worry about intermediate responses like redirects and retries.
 * Are always invoked once, even if the HTTP response is served from the cache.
