Hi Isuru, I have checked in the patches with a few minor changes. Could you also provide a patch for the forwarding message processor?
Also, can you extend the callout mediator so that it supports anonymous (inline) endpoint definitions like the send mediator? I think you already have all the basic elements to do this, so it should be a pretty straightforward addition.
