Arjen Poutsma opened SPR-5690 and commented

See #10294:

It is useful to filter @RequestMapping method based on request headers, similarly to filtering by paramters. In effect, this feature would look something like:

@RequestMapping(value = "/hotels", header = "content-type=text/*")

This would match requests where the Content-Type header is 'text/plain', 'text/html', etc.
