Well, I personally have never used the shovel plugin (I think it's a plugin,
but it could simply be an add-on, I forget). You can use it to bridge two
AMQP servers, for example, and those could of course be one and the same. My
expectation would be that you can specify in some way which messages you
want the shovel to, err, shovel from one system to the other.

It might be a dead end, but probably worth spending an hour to look at what
a shovel can do for you.

Let's see, ah, here's a link:

at least not from a config perspective, maybe the code is so simple, that
it's easy to add things you need. Or you could simply use it as a starting
point for creating your own filter that sits between your queues. Depends a
bit on how deep into programming you are willing to dive.
