  My advice: Forget about the application queue aspects of this.  Focus
on making it work for replication and matviews, which are already hard
use cases to optimize.

If someone can turn this feature into the base for a distributed
queueing system later, then great.  But let's not complicate this
feature by worrying about a use case it may never fulfill.

And as someone else mentioned... we should call this a stream and not a queue, 
since this would be lacking in many queue features.

It certainly sounds like a useful framework to have.
