[zeromq-dev] Persistent queues

[Mike Owens]

It's not that big of a deal to me if explicit identities go as well, esp. if
it makes the core code simpler. As long as it's relatively easy to get the
generated identities, it's easy enough to for me to implement a sort of
internal DNS that can use alternate names which map to the 0MQ IDs.
