Eliminate header? Can this be an option? about lua-resty-jwt HOT 2 OPEN

Hmm...
I don't like the idea of dropping all header personally.
It's not proper RFC JWT when you eliminate headers.

But I think I can put raw_payload into the jwtObj when signing, so you can easily drop headers by adding few lines.
it's not working for now

-- sign
local raw_header = jwt:jwt_encode({typ="JWT", alg="HS256"})

local jwtObj = {raw_header=raw_header, payload={id=1}}
local fullJwt = jwt.sign("secret", jwtObj)
-- or you can split full jwt and replace header with "{}"
local withoutHeader = table.concat({"{}", jwtObj.raw_payload, jwtObj.signature}, ".")

-- verify
jwt.verify("secret", raw_header .. "." .. withoutHeader)

Thoughts?

I don't think you should do anything on my account, thank you.
I agree about remaining "proper".
The code provides enough for me to customize for my use case without affecting others.
Meantime I think you've done great as is. Thank you.
