    return RouterFunctions.route()
                          .POST("/fn", request -> ServerResponse.ok().body("Functional hello!"))
                          .GET("/**", request -> ServerResponse.ok().body("_self: " + request.path()))
                          .filter((request, next) -> {
                            var response = next.handle(request);
                            var headers = HttpHeaders.writableHttpHeaders(response.headers());
                            headers.add("X-FUNCTIONAL", "It's fucking awesome!");
                            return response;
