StaticWiretap
Static message wiretapping action. The StaticWiretap differs from the StaticRouter in that the
StaticWiretap "listens in" on the action chain and allows the message to continue in the chain to
subsequent actions, while the StaticRouter action only pushes the message to destinations that are
defined in its route-to chain.
-------------
I believe StaticWiretap differs from StaticRouter in that the wiretap allows the actions below it to be executed while the router terminates the action chain at the point it is used.  The router should therefore be the last action in the chain.

Review org.jboss.soa.esb.actions.StaticRouter (extends StaticWiretap):
    public Message process(Message message) throws ActionProcessingException
    {
        super.process(message) ;
        return null ;
    }

Where return null terminates the action chain.
