If I add a request filter that determines some things from the url I might set some things that are evaluated by the application to display certain things. Is there a nice way of doing?

Hi Norbert,

I'm not sure if I'm understanding your question correctly, but it
sounds like your filter could store something in the property
dictionary of the RequestContext for later filters to find? Another
option is to use a dynamic variable or you could walk the handler
stack in the request context looking for the filter and ask it
directly.
