Hi,

I think we will have to test call mediator in blocking mode for some
different use cases. Then we will have to update Documentation about
blocking capability of call mediator. For example the Call Mediator
Documentation for ESB 4.9.0 [1] does not contain any information about
blocking behavior of the call mediator. I think most of the people do not
know about this feature because of that. In any case we will have to test
blocking behavior more as there are some complains about it.

Thank you,
