Comment (by nacin):

 Interesting idea, but I don't think this function should have a filter.
 It'd be like adding a filter to exit(), header(), json_encode(), or some
 other low-level function. Its output should be expected based on its
 input, ideally without filtration. It's not the right place, and it's also
 easily abused (to the point of brokenness, for example).

 The proper way to handle this would be for the plugin to add a specific
 filter on the data before it sends it to the client.
