Koa example bypasses built-in response handling

See original GitHub issue

The Koa example uses ctx.respond, but the Koa documentation says: “Note that using this is not supported by Koa. This may break intended functionality of Koa middleware and Koa itself. Using this property is considered a hack and is only a convenience to those wishing to use traditional fn(req, res) functions and middleware within Koa.”

Can this be avoided and if yes, could the example be updated?

Bummer that this was closed. I sure would love to see proper Koa support via a more configurable side-effect-free rendering pipeline. Running my hack in production right now doesn’t feel great but I’m forced to do it if I want to use Koa 😕

@dizlexik Thanks for the update. I really wish it was possible to opt out of the response handling in next then the work arounds would not be necessary
