Not all of the contacts online via an MSN transport are going to be
using SMS, though. It would seem to make sense to me for those contacts
to identify themselves like:
<identity category='gateway' type='msn'/>
<identity category='client' type='sms'/>
...
Well, I'm not sure the individual contacts are on a transport should
have a category='gateway' (the morning coffee hasn't kicked in yet), but
a client type of SMS seems reasonable to me.
