Now, one thing that I would be very concerned to see is transforming the bus into a
central repository and source for schemas. The bus should be designed following the
"dumb pipes" [1] principle. It should take care of delivery but never ever
inspect or make decisions based on actual content piped.

No doubt the bus should be (and is) dumb plumbing. What we are talking
about are the apps using the bus, and what makes it easy for them to
provide and consume messages. It seems like we could do a little better
than reading docs, screwing up, and retrying, at least for Java
clients. I would happily incorporate a Gson-ready pojo guaranteed to
parse out the Json dropped on HawkularMetricsData topic. I don't really
care which client jar I need to get it, whether it was a kettle client
jar or a metrics client jar.
