Indeed. The brokers I'm familiar with don't have multi-tenancy built 
into them. But rather than have one broker process support multiple 
tenants, wouldn't it be possible to just have separate processes (even

Understood, ensuring that one tenant is completely isolated from being 
impacted by anything another tenant might try to do.
