[erlang-questions] RabbitMQ Erlang client integration

[Patrik Nyblom]

Hi!

Record names are just names in headers, nothing stops you from having 
one record named e.g. user in one module and a completely different 
record with the same name in another. As long as you do not include both 
headers (or in some other way manage to declare the record "type" twice) 
in the same source code, you're OK. So just limit the use of the 
rabbitmq user record to a module that does not use your own user record.
