Is there a problem creating a new temporary queue for each client and binding this to the topic exchange using the routing keys that client cares about? I can't imagine you'd do anything dissimilar with another messaging stack (like jms) but perhaps I'm missing something.

What you get with this approach is zero queue maintainable overhead, as the client declares an anonymous, temporary queue that lasts only for the duration of that client's session. The only thing that needs to be pre-built is the exchange, but of course instead of the clients knowing the queue name(s) they know the routing/binding keys instead.
