Proposed changes
Backlog item: https://trello.com/c/1jAoRESp
This changes the 'drop intermediate messages' checkbox of the Delay node (in rate limit mode) to a select box. The options are:
If this last option is selected, the node gains a 2nd output. Any message that would previously have been dropped will now get sent on that output.
This is useful for rate limiting flows that need to do some work with the 'reject' messages. For example, rate limiting an HTTP API, where the 'dropped' requests need to be responded to with a 503.
