I would not recommend that at all - you're likely to get messages in
different orders with this scheme. QoS is much better idea, or, use
channel.flow from the client (may only work in newer-than-1.7.2 - can't
remember when it appeared) to prevent any messages being sent out
*before* issuing the basic.consume.

You could then have either a delay or some signal through some other
exchange and queues (and channel) to get the clients to drop the
channel.flow and start consuming.
