Agreed. IBB MUST be possible as fallback and you can try S5B if you
want.

Depends on the file. If I send you a small txt file with my notes, IBB
is ok. If I send you a mp3 file, IBB is bad, S5B with proxy is ok. If I
send you a HDTV recording, the proxy administrator will kill me if I use
a proxy. So for file transfer it depends on the file.

stanzas. It makes no sense to open a second one. You may open another
e2e tls stream for file transfer, but that has nothing to do with the
