   Gotcha. Thanks for the explanation. With my last commit we'd support 1 -> 2 
-> 3 :)
   
   So it'd support whichever approach you decide to take as far as activating 
the exchage property before executing the producer template or not.
   
   What you gain when activating it is that you can add the metadata that won't 
be available to camel since there's no Kakfa endpoint/kafka decorator involved. 
Also an extra kafka-connector Span which may or may not be critical if the 
connector doesn't take long before fwding to camel. 
   
   What you lose... yeah if you already depend on opentracing to extract the 
context I can't think of anything you'd lose from activating a Span. Unless you 
wanted to hide kafka-connector from traces.
