Are you referring specifically to your suggestion on the Jira? You asked, "...could it perhaps make sense for Artemis throw an error if the `HDR_VALIDATED_USER` contents, if present, do not match the `validatedUser` for the connection on the server side? Otherwise, how can downstream applications have access to the authenticated user for a given incoming AMQP message?" I didn't quite understand your question. Are you asking if Artemis could be changed so that if the user sending the message sets the "_AMQ_ValidatedUser" property with a value that doesn't match the name of the user which the broker validates for that user's connection then the broker would reject the message with an exception? For what it's worth, a foundational tenet of most messaging applications (especially asynchronous ones) is a fundamental separation of consumers and producers. Generally speaking this simplifies application design and facilitates better scaling. By having the consumers care about who sent the message they are consuming this tenet is broken. You may want to revisit your application design to see if this is absolutely necessary. To be clear, this feature was implemented in Artemis for backwards compatibility with ActiveMQ 5.x.
