I don't like the exception-based process model you describe. Making submission queueing the default - even for the single message case - greatly simplifies the interface. And having a single hook for this opens up a lot of flexibility for things I can't even imagine right now, but know I will want to as the corporate monsters and governments continue to restrict whom I am allowed to talk to, and how.
