The existing inheritance based system is now deprecated. - HttpsEnforcerMiddleware now has an hsts option that allows you to configure the Strict-Transport-Security header. - Controller::viewClasses() was added. This can be implemented by controllers that need to perform content-type negotiation. View classes will need to implement the static method contentType() to participate in content-type negotiation.
