<div><br></div><div>Clearly the MQTT PUBLISH topic would be unused in this case, but I don&#39;t necessarily care about it.</div><div><br></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Thinking about this a little more, I really would not want to lose the ability to do topic publishing in MQTT.  Fortunately, it seems there&#39;s another way.  With Rabbit&#39;s Exchange-to-Exchange bindings (<a href="http://www.rabbitmq.com/blog/2010/10/19/exchange-to-exchange-bindings/">http://www.rabbitmq.com/blog/2010/10/19/exchange-to-exchange-bindings/</a>), it seems that MQTT messages could first go to a topic exchange, and then based on exchange-to-exchange bindings, be routed to a custom exchange (such as the random one above).</div>

<div><br></div><div>Any reason this wouldn&#39;t work?  Am I really off in the weeds?</div></div>
