[rabbitmq-discuss] Symmetric federation behavior

[Busoli, Simone]

If we were sure this is going to be out in the release after the next one we could think of living with the bandwidth consumption for a while until there is a solution for it. 
I'm guessing you're going to have some planning sessions before then so I would be glad if you could get back to me as soon as you agree on whether it is going to be included in that release.
Thanks for your help so far.

Cheers, Simone

The main issue is that the decision needs to be handled upstream - therefore the intermediate upstream exchange (currently a fanout) needs to be something a bit smarter, so we need a new x-federation-upstream-helper type or something. This then has knock on effects in that it would be nice to still support the case where federation is not installed upstream, so we need to detect this and fall back.

The next release is likely within a week or so, so this will probably not happen before then. But the release after that could easily include this enhancement.

Cheers, Simon
