I recently updated from django 3.2 to 4.2 and am getting a 404 in my logging middleware when a request gets a redirect on requests where APPEND\_SLASH applies. My application has the APPEND\_SLASH setting enabled and when I call `curl -D - http:///health`, when `/health/` is the correct path, `curl` correctly gets a 301 response but it gets passed to my custom logging middleware as a 404. In the past the redirect did not get passed to the middleware and these requests were not present in the logs.
I also checked and in django 4.1 it has the same behavior as in 3.2. What changed in 4.2 for this to happen? I cannot find any relevant information in the release notes.
If helpful, this is my list of middleware:
```auto
MIDDLEWARE = [
'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware',
'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',
'myapp.middleware.LoggingMiddleware'
]
```

Yes, this is now intentional.
