Rack::Head would take care of that, but yes, good point.
Fix: rails/rails#55508 Mounting Propshaft::Server in the Rails router isn't suitable because it end up executed after a long list of middlewares that may set cookies or do other transformation we don't want. In production, propshaft assets are served by `ActionDispatch::Static` (or a reverse proxy), so we should try to be as close to that as possible.
