ICON TM RA implement auto affinity for IMS Sync Callout Response

The docs say, that the IMS Callout Response needs to be sent to the originating IMS. It is very difficult to ensure this with Dynamic VIPA and 4 shared queues Members.
Customer requests, that HWSJAVA0 IMS Connect exit sends the originating Datastore ID/IMSID with the IMS Sync Callout Request message and IMS TM RA, when the Activation Spec Datastore = ORIG copies the Datastore ID/IMSID from the IMS Sync Callout Request Message to the Response Message, just like with Correlation ID.
This solution would also work for Datapower, SOAP Gateway and IMS Connect API.

    Dear Denis Gäbler:

    Thank you for submitting this IMS enhancement request.
    After giving the request a comprehensive review, we have determined that we cannot include it as a candidate in an upcoming release because it is not consistent with the product architecture and our strategy for future releases.
    As a consequence we have, unfortunately, rejected this request.

    We appreciate your input to the IMS development team. We also hope that you will continue to submit ideas for improvements as customer feedback is a key component to shaping the future direction of IMS.

    Sincerely,
    Poonam Chitale
