I fail to see how you can expect to be invisible in public. How can you

you've leaked your presence and your invisibility is gone.
I don't see why being invisible should preclude selectively revealing
myself to certain people or groups of people. If I get found out,
that's my problem, it's not a protocol issue.
I fully agree. I just wonder about people's expectations.
Suppose I'm invisible, and I'm IM-ing both yourself and Matthew about
XEP-0198, and we realise we should take this discussion to jdev@. By
joining that room, I know that everyone there will know I'm online; but
I still don't want everyone else in the world to know I'm online.
Of course, someone in jdev@ could leak my true availability. But so
could you or Matthew, when I was speaking to you privately.
