one thing that could work is to set the maxPageSize for your
destinations to 1 via a destination policy, in this way each attempt
to dispatch will only dispatch a single message.
By default dispatch occurs async, but if you dispatch in the sending
thread, you will get ordered dispatch. That is the
optimizedDispatch=true destination option.
This won't be a very fast setup if messages need to be paged from disk
but could get you what you want.
