> I would like to propose a change to the camel-core extender for components, type converters, etc. to allow to use camel-core with subsystem-aware OSGI-containers to separate components and it’s dependencies into subsystems. This would allow to isolate applications and camel components (incl. it’s libraries) from each other. I.e. you could run HTTP-related components that rely on (otherwise conflicting) HTTP client libs in different versions next to each other.
> Currently, the BundleTracker in the camel-core extender is initialized on its own BundleContext and therefore does not receive any events from started camel component bundles that reside in subsystems. I discussed a solution to make the camel extender subsystem-aware in the Aries mailinglist [1], who already conducted this change in the blueprint implementation. 
> This approach from the upcoming R6 DS 1.3 spec was proposed by David Jencks as a solution:
>   - use the system bundle (bundle 0) to look for events of interest, so you see them for all bundles
>   - have the extender register an extender capability
>   - have bundles that need extension register a matching extender requirement
>   - the extender should only extend bundles with no extender requirement or ones with extender requirements wired to their own extender capability.
> I implemented this approach accordingly for camel and tested it in combination with the Aries subsystem module. Any feedback to this would be very much appreciated.
