Thanks Claus -

Does that mean you think it would be a worthwhile addition to Camel?   If so, 
I’ll create the JIRA.

I’d like it because I’ve basically had to reproduce a good portion of what 
Camel already does (logging the redelivery) just to eliminate some log entries 
(to keep our Splunk usage down), and I’d rather let Camel do it.
