Description

Metrics for rabbitmq are bound using Micrometer to the prefix rabbitmq (https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/blob/b8983cef590686a3b1d23ffef4113b024a9a13e3/spring-boot-project/spring-boot-actuator/src/main/java/org/springframework/boot/actuate/metrics/amqp/RabbitMetrics.java#L55)

	@Override
	public void bindTo(MeterRegistry registry) {
		this.connectionFactory.setMetricsCollector(new MicrometerMetricsCollector(registry, "rabbitmq", this.tags));
	}

This is the same domain as rabbitmq server metrics and it can be confusing to pick these apart (I've seen recommendations for scoping them to rabbitmq.client). It would be nice to be able to customize this!

Research direction

Start with RabbitMetrics.java at the bindTo method linked in the issue, and inspect how MicrometerMetricsCollector currently receives the fixed "rabbitmq" prefix. The work is done when the RabbitMQ metrics prefix can be customized instead of always using that value.
