LGTM 👍

@retrohacker thanks, it's broken by some unexpected style changes.
Seems to be that prettier fails to follow SemVer :/

Fix: #1583

When will this change be available in a release?

A simple workaround in the meanwhile:

    req._date = new Date();
});

To close the loop on this, fix should have landed in latest 6.x and 7.x.
