The RPC servers that serve requests for different applications must be
listening on different work queues. You must ensure that RPC clients use
a routing key that matches the server queue and are different for each
application.

I don't see how it makes sense to use a routing key that is not unique
to the application. Perhaps you can explain your intended use.

The server work queue is normally declared outside the RPC Server
framework, so you can set this up as a durable queue if you want work
messages to survive a server restart.

This feature has been added recently and will be in the next release.
