That's the obvious next step, yes :)

I'm not sure that's a bigger request, but again, yes, it's in the backlog.

Maybe. cowboy's already in 3.0 for web-stomp, and the idea that RabbitMQ 
contains two web servers is a bit silly. But this might be more of an 
"if it ain't broke" type of thing. And we haven't really tested 
performance - it's not obvious how web-stomp and management performance 
could be compared ;-)

But I don't think any of this stuff will happen for 3.0 specifically, we 
just want to get that out...
