yes=E2=80=A6 definitely agree on locking down the config file.

But I'm more worried about a regression at some future point.  Unit tests
go a long way=E2=80=A6 but I can also put in guards in the code to prevent =
it from
even working with a broken broker by verifying that things are sane when it
connects to the broker.

Seems like JMX is the way to do this=E2=80=A6 but now I'll need to figure i=
t out :)
