Note that exclusive *queues* and exclusive *consumers* are two different 
things.

An exclusive *queue* can only be accessed by the connection that created it.

An exclusive *consumer* prevents anyone else from consuming from the queue.

Exclusive consumers are less well known than exclusive queues, so it's 
important not to get them mixed up.
