I believe that backup queues will have the same filters as primary queues.

I think the policy for backups should be no different as for the primaries.
As far as slow clients, Ignite is capable to automatically disconnect them:

Isn't this feature getting Ignite into the murky waters of the message

I believe that the new proposed approach will be optional and you will
still be able to get event notifications in non-fault-tolerant manner the
old way.
