Just a few thoughts related to the introduction of SimpleString. I find it cumbersome to use SimpleString when creating our Core objects (Session, Producers). I'd prefer to have our API expressed using regular String and wrap internally to a SimpleString rather than ask our users to do the wrapping. Like wise, I wonder if we shouldn't keep using plain Strings for everything coming from User land (e.g. JMS Text & Map message, headers & properties) to avoid any encoding issues. wdyt?
