Configurable processing of messages

When dealing with changes, it would be great if you could configure a business process or operation to only process N number of messages. We are regularly asked to only allow a few messages through to enable a supplier to verify everything is ok their end. Also would be handy when we're making changes to our integration engine, allowing only a set number of messages to process will make it safer to manage.

    I would expect the behaviour to be:
    Tickbox, disable after processing N messages
    Once ticked, able to set a numerical value as to how many messages to allow through, and then disable.


    I know you can kind of do this with throttling but that is more fiddly.
