It uses message-id because STOMP requires ACKs to refer to the
message-id header, and the internal details of RabbitMQ do something a
bit different.

The AMQP message-id header (part of the Basic content-header structure)
is carried in a STOMP header called "amqp-message-id" on both SEND and
MESSAGE -- you could use that, instead, and it should be propagated to
both STOMP and AMQP clients.
