Yup. The point is that AMQP knows nothing about administration - it's a 
simple client/server wire-level protocol. However, the commands it 
provides allows you to implement the admin tool in any way you want. The 
admin tool from AMQP's point of view will be just another client 
applcation. I suppose RabbitMQ already has some kind of admin tool 
available.
