Yes, you could definitely use a JMS QueueBrowser. I didn't mention it because you were already using the core API. If you used the core JMS client then the QueueBrowser implementation would use the core API's browse-only consumer under the covers. The advantage with using JMS is that it's an API and you can swap out implementations if you ever need/want to (e.g. if you switched brokers). The disadvantage is that it adds more dependencies to your code (although that might not be significant for your use-case).
