Thinking about this again - is redirecting to a queue really the most useful API to expose? Wouldn't users want to redirect to a set of queues, i.e. RSS context? Or in your case the redirect to a set of queues is done by assigning a class? Either way we should start documenting things, so please find (/create) some place under Documentation/networking where we can make notes for posterity.
