By coincidence, "axel_podehl" has logged a JIRA issue which is closely related to this. I have copied Philippe's comment
to that issue.
http://java.net/jira/browse/JMS_SPEC-113
As you may have noticed, I'm now deferring consideration of *new* issues until JMS 2.1, and this issue is no exception
(pun not intended). I've added it to the growing list at
http://java.net/projects/jms-spec/pages/JSR343Planning#Minor_issues_to_be_considered_for_JMS_2.1
If people make comments on the JIRA issue we won't lose them and can consider them properly when we get to 2.1.
Hope that seems reasonable.
