> There are some administrative use cases where it is necessary to move 
> messages off of one queue and place on another. Perhaps the initial queue has 
> some bad messages that need to be examined, perhaps the initial queue is 
> getting inundated.
> The changes have been made to the Broker and Queue class.  
> With Broker you can call queueMoveMessages and pass the name of the source 
> queue and the destination queue along with the quantity of messages to be 
> moved. A 0 (zero) for the message quantity means move all messages. 
> The Broker::queueMoveMessages looks up the queue pointers and calls move on 
> the source Queue, passing the destination queue pointer and the quantity.  
> (The Queue class has move efficient private methods for handling removing the 
> messages.)
> Move will return the number of messages actually used. Unfortunately  
> queueMoveMessages  returns a status and this quantity actually moved is lost.
> This enhancement allows an administrator to move messages form one queue to 
> another using qpid-tool using:
> call <broker-ID> queueMoveMessages <src-queue> <dest-queue> <qty>
> This works fine.
> Questions:
> 1) Is the schema name queueMoveMessages too long?
> 2) Perhaps it would be nice to return the quantity instead of just STATUS_OK 
> but that might mess up the framework. Mayeb have an extra out parameter that 
> has the actually quantity moved?
