OK - ensuring all bound queues receive messages in the same order is a sensible policy option - though adding a sequence number seems slightly orthogonal to that. As you suggest the other alternative there is for a single queue implementation of "topic" - I actually have one of those for the Java Broker that I did as part of the AMQP 1.0 work.
