// for plugin development purposes! NEVER use it for a plugin
// that you are not currently building. If before is empty,
// the directive will be appended to the end of the list.
//
// It is imperative that directives execute in the proper
// order, and hard-coding the list of directives guarantees
// a correct, absolute order every time. This function is
// convenient when developing a plugin, but it does not
// guarantee absolute ordering. Multiple plugins registering
// directives with this function will lead to non-
// deterministic builds and buggy software.
//
// Directive names must be lower-cased and unique. Any errors
// here are fatal, and even successful calls print a message
// to stdout as a reminder to use it only in development.

// care what middleware above them are doing.
