OK - though a UniBasic STOMP client would rock :)

So its up to your web.xml to define the mapping; but yes in the demo
its demo/message/$DESTINATION

I've raised a JIRA to track the creation of standard URIs in the
out-of-the-box broker without using the Demo web app...

Destinations are lazily loaded as they are used. You can specify
exactly what destinations to start with via...

http://activemq.apache.org/configure-startup-destinations.html

for more background see

You don't loose them; the destinations don't appear by default until
you produce/consume from them.
