   Looks useful!. Logback provides support for [TurboFilters] which can be used 
to enable log for specific thread of execution. We used this in [Apache 
Sling][2] to enable log for specific logger for specific thread via HTTP Header 
and make those logs available in Chrome plugin. Something like below
   
   ```
   curl -s -D - -H "X-OW-EXTRA-LOGGING : true" 
   -H "X-OW-EXTRA-LOGGING-CONFIG : org.apache.kafka.clients;level=trace" \
    http://localhost:8000/api/v1/namespaces/_/actions/hello?overwrite=true -o 
/dev/null
   ```
   
   This would allow us to say see what all outbound calls are made in specific 
request. Going further probably the log directive can be added to activation 
message and picked up by invoker those allowing tracing logs for specific 
category on invoker side to debug any potential issue
   
   All this is just a possible suggestion/idea for future work in this area! 
For now we can keep it simple and start with current approach in this PR
