Description

There has been several requests for such a component to re-route
the flow in case of an error / fault. An EIP pattern is the best way
to go imho.

While answering on another thread on the user list, I thought we could make this component
(an error-handler) quite pluggable. Instead of simply re-routing the exchange to another service,
the endpoint could be given a strategy for handling exchanges in error. The simple re-routing
could be one of the strategy, but more complex ones could be written too: for example a redelivery
with an exponential back off and a DLQ target service ...

I think the requirements for this ticket may be fulfilled by the patch submitted in SMXCOMP-570.
