> The refactoring of the dispatch code introduced an incompatibility for upgrades where the data directory is preserved. The gateway.xml file from the previous version has old classnames configured that are still valid classes but no longer Filters.
> We need to continue the refactoring to make the original classes valid Filters that extend the new DispatchFilter and provides whatever is needed in terms of new dispatch-impl config based on the refactoring.
