headers masking implementation not replaceable

Recently I tried to switch away from the deprecated org.apache.cxf.interceptor Logging interceptors to the separate cxf-rt-features-logging module, realizing that I could also switch to the org.apache.cxf.ext.logging.LoggingFeature eliminating the need for explicitly configuring interceptors as described in https://cxf.apache.org/docs/message-logging.html

I also wanted to replace my proprietary sensitive masking implementation by a customized intended org.apache.cxf.ext.logging.MaskSensitiveHelper.

But I noticed that this only worked for sensitive elements, not for sensitive protocol header names, as MaskSensitiveHelper.maskHeaders() never gets called. Instead, headers masking is done by org.apache.cxf.ext.logging.event.DefaultLogEventMapper, which is final in org.apache.cxf.ext.logging.AbstractLoggingInterceptor, therefore cannot be changed. In turn, MaskSensitiveHelper in DefaultLogEventMapper is also not changeable (no setter).

This behaviour cannot have been intended that way.
