Koa2: setting ctx.status prior to ctx.redirect call does not yield any effect.

See original GitHub issue

Is this a bug?

per documentation https://github.com/koajs/koa/blob/v2.x/docs/api/response.md#responseredirecturl-alt

if i set ctx.status prior ctx.redirect call my response status should be set to what ever is i specify it to, but this does not happen in my case. I have middle wear that redirects visitor for any path that does not fall under exception if they do not have authenticated session.

        if (authRequired && !ctx.isAuthenticated()) {
            ctx.status = authConfig.authRequiredRedirect.statusCode;
            ctx.redirect(authConfig.authRequiredRedirect.path);
        }

Am I missing something?

Original goal was to respond to none-auth user with 401 and redirect them to login page.
