Good idea, I've added that to the guide.

Hmm, general rule of email, keep it to a single question at a time :-)

I don't see that 0MQ will ever 'hiccup' and drop messages.  You don't
know the start and you don't know the end of a pubsub stream but once
a subscriber starts to get data it's not going to miss anything unless
you are using an unreliable transport like PGM or you have set HWM and
your queues are overflowing.

Not in normal scenarios but if you are doing very high rate cases
where networks can't handle the load and queues overflow, then maybe.
