I think it would be useful - certainly if I were trying to sell Qpid
derivatives commercially I would be looking at something that didn't
require multicast (or RDMA for that matter). I don't know if multicast
is on the EC2 roadmap but I certainly can't imagine that RDMA is. The
latency is important for some users but for others the throughput is
more important (along with easy hosting on services such as EC2).
