I've been investigating this and I've noticed a problem with
basic.cancel methods in the direct API. Should this method be sent to
channel, in order that the channel cancels the client or should the
message be sent directly to the consumer? Should the direct channel
maintain a list of consumers, even if it is not necessarily
interacting with them in the normal course of events (because the
server channel dispatches directly to the subscriber)? What are the
advantages/disadvantages?
