tcp client mode / server mode determined by "to" or "from" elements limits 
usability.

                 Key: CAMEL-1077
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/CAMEL-1077
             Project: Apache Camel
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: camel-mina
    Affects Versions: 1.5.0, 1.4.0, 1.3.0, 1.2.0, 1.1.0, 1.0.0
            Reporter: Jeff Vienneau


Internally, 

MinaProducer is coded to create a Mina connector (client mode socket).
MinaConsumer is coded to create a Mina acceptor (server mode socket).

Additionally, it appears a producer (client mode socket) is created for a "to" 
route mapping and a consumer (server mode socket) is created for a "from" route 
mapping.

This means an endpoint cannot be created in which the session is initiated by a 
client and messages are routed "to" the client. 

The opposite is also true, an endpoint with a "from" route mapping cannot 
establish a connection to a tcp server.

This is a major limitation, as we do not often have control over the systems 
with which we are interfacing.

Perhaps, the mina::tcp URI could have a parameter the sets the socket mode: 
tcp.mode=server or tcp.mode=client.

Hope this make sense, thanks!
