Question: Create Links from "complex" headers

[meastp]

I'm using the HTTP Link header for pagination in my API.

e.g. GET /items?limit=10&filter=active

returns a Link-header with Link: <https://example.com/features?limit=10&filter=active&cursor=a34Dsdf>; rel="next"

What I would like is for the auto-generation tools to be able to create a method e.g. "getNextPortion" that uses the parameters from the Link header to get the next n items.

Is this possible, or must I use "primitive" headers containing single integers and strings?

Note: worth keeping an eye on the progress of the structured fields draft on its path to becoming an RFC. See also #1980

This is a duplicate of #667 which has more info, so I'm closing this in favor of that.
