By spullara:

There are 3 options here. We can use instanceOf, we can move the efficient parsing of headers to a different decoder or we can add a very implementation specific call to HttpMessage. Not sure what we should prefer. My guess was that if you use our Decoder you are already extending DefaultHttpMessage.
