This is somewhat/exactly what I did when I first created pmsg, but decided to simplify to one instance for the first release because I was unsure how many bona fide user space consumers there would be, so kept the patch small. I kept the instance number 0 around to allow for expanding this optional feature without introducing incompatibility. But I sold the idea that multiple writers on single instance can occur if a common protocol was used. For my own usage (Android) one instance was more than enough. Multiple instances does allow one to control individual content aging or priority, I agree with your assessment, but make sure that you have a bona fide user for it (even if it is just for yourself)?
