I don't see that on the link level. A link requires a session requires a connection which is bound to an AMQP impl that supports a specific filter set.
Why are these connection capabilities and not link capabilities?
I can easy see having a solution that, for example, bridges STOMP or MQTT; consequently, the supported filter kinds on one link would differ, and clients could easily connect to such a broker without having to support the full gamut.

I would like to propose add the following three filter types to the registries, along with an associated connection capability
<type class="composite" name="amqp-direct-filter" source="string" provides="filter">

<type class="restricted" name="amqp-topic-filter" source="string" provides="filter">

<type class="restricted" name="amqp-headers-filter" source="map" provides="filter">
<descriptor name="apache.org:amqp-headers-filter:map" code="0x0000468C:0x00000002"/>
</type>
The amqp-direct-filter string is used as an exact character match on the "subject" field of the properties section of a message.
The amqp-topic-filter string is used as a pattern match against the "subject" field using the syntax defined in AMQP v0-8, v0-9, v0-9-1 and v0-10
The amqp-headers-filter contains a map which matches against the application-properties map in the manner defined for arguments in binding to a headers exchange in AMQP v0-8, v0-9, v0-9-1 and v0-10
I would propose a connection capability of
APACHE.ORG:AMQP_EXCHANGE_BINDING_FILTERS
to denote the support of these filter types.
Obviously the intent here is to support legacy v0-x AMQP binding models behind an AMQP 1.0 front end where the consumer creates a receiving link from a node which represents an "exchange" in a legacy AMQP v0-x broker.
I agree with the intent. However I'm not so sure its a good idea (a) to use 'amqp' in 'vendor' extensions and (b) to use 'amqp' unqualified for legacy support for pre 1.0 concepts.
What about simply: subject-filter-exact, subject-filter-hierarchical and properties-match-filter? They would potentially be applicable even in implementations that were not based on the old pre-1.0 concepts.
