Description

It would be nice to be able to send a message with a TTL via hawtio (http://hawt.io/) or any other JMX tool. Since its not a JMS API we don't have to follow the (slightly crap) JMS spec in relation to TTL / JMSExpiration so if a timeToLive or JMSExpiration header is specified we could actually use it, which would be great.

Then sending TTL messages would be a nice easy way for folks to get stuff onto a DLQ when demoing/testing DLQ tooling in things like hawtio.

e.g. this JMX Method:
sendTextMessage(java.util.Map, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, java.lang.String)

it'd be nice to look for timeToLive (say 1000 for 1 second TTL) or JMSExpiration (which is a timestamp based thing)
