The message from 2.8 release does a great job in explaining the work pool and work queue concepts. I feel adding the same information to this concept doc will make the doc better

From the docs, it is still unclear to me yet
• whether work queues can be created without being associated to work pools. This line in code implies work pool is optional. Is my understanding correct?
• do work queue names have to be unique across all work pools. This line in code implies the work queue names have to be unique across work pools. Is my understanding correct?

Great questions @Srini!
• If you create a work queue without specifying a work pool, then the work queue will be created in the work pool named ‘default-agent-pool.’ We do this to preserve backward compatibility.
• Work queue names only need to be unique within a work pool. The code you linked will retrieve work queues across all work pools starting with the specified prefix.
Let me know if you have any other questions!
