Im kinda curious about the message type usage in JEP0022. In the jep the examples messages are sent with no type attribute...
Even tho the type attribute in a message packet isnt really that important, and really only holds UI style relevance, there is a certain level of relativity you should keep. For instance... if I am holding a conversation with someone, who also supports jabber:x:events, and the messages that are going back and forward between the two users have attrib type="chat" in them, shouldnt the events hold the same attribute type="chat"? The argument that would go against this is of course the fact that messages without a body shouldnt be sent with a type... but thats where i disagree, because if that was the case... then the attribute type would hold a little more importance than just a UI aspect, would it not?


wouldnt it be cleaner, to structure event packets around the same base of the message packets that you are sending around them? I mean, for clients that support threads, they all keep the thread information in tact, why should this be any different for the parent node of the packet?

I dunno, it doesnt really make much sense to me.
