Yes.

I'm not sure there is one, other than to say "use 'content-type' 
instead". Which may not be exactly what you wanted to hear.

For reasons lost in the mists of time our STOMP adapter ignores:

* expiration
* timestamp
* type
* user-id
* app-id

I'm not sure there's any reason not just to add support for these, so 
you could hold out for a future release.

Cheers, Simon
