Adding headers to GenericAPIView responses

[jcassee]

Hi,

I'm looking for a way to add headers to the Response of generic views. The different mixins create their own Response instance, and have no way to add headers. I might be looking in the wrong place?

Concretely, I would like to add Link headers. Issue #403 mentions this should be possible using third-party code, but I cannot find a way to add them.

If this is not possible, I was thinking about two options:

• Add some standard method to GenericAPIView for adding headers.
• Add response_class for using a subclass of Response that would contain the magic, á la Missing (?) Location and Link Header #403.
