[rabbitmq-discuss] Feature request for shovel addin - max hops

[Busoli, Simone]

Hello,  I think it would be very useful to have the shovel addin support a max-hops option like the federation addin does (while waiting for it to be production-ready), to avoid needing to do contrived exchange-exchange bindings to implement a transparent federation-like pub/sub behavior which otherwise currently goes into an infinite loop. It sounds like it would be easy to do by adding some metadata to deliveries.

It would be helpful in one of our scenarios where we currently need to setup two shovels to let two servers communicate, one from s1 to s2 and vice-versa.

What do you think?
