BTW I think it is unclear (at least for some people) what should be given as a 'name' in <identity category='client' type='pc'/>.
Probably because XEP-0030 doesn't really say. :)

I don't remember the details, but some time ago people complained that Psi puts 'Psi' as a name, not user's nick.
Well, we do have XEP-0172 for nicknames.
If I wanted to look for nicknames in disco#info, I'd rather look in 'account' category. For example:
  <identity category='account' type='registered' name='machekku' />
This could be added automatically to disco#info of bare jids - server would just put nickname from vcard there. But at the same time, clients cannot include this identity in their replies, because a client cannot tell me if it's running on a registered or anonymous or admin account (or rather: it can tell me, but I wouldn't trust it ;))
