Good to see a very active discussion... But is there a reason I'm not familiar with that this MUST be done in Camel 3.0? I don't think so... I would like to add this topic to the Camel road map page [1] for Camel 3.x (after Camel 3.0) and postpone the discussion to a time where the development for Camel 3.0 is settled. For Camel 3.0, we HAVE TO DO many things and each help in this area is highly appreciated...
