We have so many specs for invisibility (and similar) feature - privacy
lists, block lists, the various invisiblity specs.
Isn't this spec, for example, just special casing presence-out:deny ?
"
<iq type='set' id='invisible'>
<query xmlns='jabber:iq:privacy'>
<list name='invisible-all'>
<item action='deny' order='1'>
<presence-out/>
</item>
</list>
</query>
</iq>
"
Either we should have a proliferation of small specs which implement
subset's of functionality required, or have something like privacy list
which handles all cases (maybe something better designed if that is a
concern ?) - having both together means neither server, not client can
rely on support of these (unless they implement all).
