Bela Ban commented on JGRP-2225:
--------------------------------

The equivalent to this in 5.0 is {{CompositeMessage}}. It achieves the same thing without the downsides of implementing down(MessageBatch).

> Currently, we receive messages and message batches, but we're not able to _send_ message batches. Investigate adding a {{JChannel.send(MessageBatch)}} and {{Protocol.down(MessageBatch)}}.
> The use case is that if we want to send 10 messages to the same destination, we currently send 10 messages. Because they're on the same thread, they;re _not_ likely to end up in the same batch.
> Sending a message batch down the stack ensures that all messages end up in the same message batch (unless the max bundle size is exceeded).
