You're right-- I do see them as task-related.  I can easily imagine
structuring the pipeline so that each operation that needed messaging
was itself a task.  And so I don't see that as a separate need for a way
of passing messages between components.

So yeah, my only objection to RabbitMQ is that it's premature in the
planning process.
