Plugins: you can't - plugins mainly just use the erlang client and are
generally normal client programs which happen to be running in the same
Erlang VM as Rabbit. Or, they use some other defined API such as

amqqueue:with/{2,3} is probably what you're after: from there you can
get the #amqqueue record, which contains arguments.

binding:list_for_source/1, binding:list_for_destination/1 et al are what
you want for bindings. From the results, you'll have a list of #binding
records, which contain args.

Yes, but don't do so directly. Use the APIs we provide.
