Missing Feature, routes are empty when trying route_to in filters

[crustamet]

I do not know if this is a wanted behaviour or not

But having this Filter Config for example

public array $globals = [
	'before' => [
		'honeypot' => ['except' => [route_to('some_alias')]],
		// 'csrf',
		// 'invalidchars',
	],
	'after' => [
		// 'honeypot',
		// 'secureheaders',
	],
];

first it does not allow you to have it as a constant with dynamic strings

so i change the filter config with this addition instead of putting in the globals

public function __construct()
{
	$routes = Services::routes();
	
	echo route_to('some_alias'); 

	$this->globals['before']['honeypot']['except'] = [route_to('route_alias')];
}

It does not work because routes are not loaded yet from the Codeigniter->Run() method because of this piece of code here
https://github.com/codeigniter4/CodeIgniter4/blob/develop/system/CodeIgniter.php#L346

The handling of the request happens after the filters were loaded....

The filters are loaded first then the routes configuration file ... why is that ?
I thought that routes were important without them nothing works, i know there is an AutoRouteImprove feature or what not. even though routes should be already loaded here no ?

I just want to access my routes that i have defined in the filters configuration file...

Is there a way to do this ?

i have moved the handling of the request before the filters are loaded and for sure now i can see my defined routes from my routes config file...

I'm sure that this is not the right approach..
