Description

The AMQP 1.0 specification isn't exactly clear on what a "correlation-id" is, and therefore specifies "*" as its type. Most of the qpid tools hide this behind the api and coerce values to strings for you, however recently when interacting with a qpid broker I discovered that sending an integer value for the correlation-id results in qpidd dropping the value, and replacing it with a null value when replying on a queue/topic specified in the reply-to property.
