Our team is starting work on using XEP-283. Has anyone else looked at this
and do they see any problems with the spec as it is currently written
(Version 1.0)?

One item which came up in our discussion, is linking an unsubscribe from an
old JID to a new subscribe from the new JID with a token. However, we
decided that just including the new JID in the unsubscribe from the old JID,
and the old JID in a subscribe from the new JID were enough. A token
provided no more assurance of authenticity.

What I really don't like in this XEP is that it contradicts the idea of "keep clients simple". I think we can do the same using server-side redirects (we have such error type already defined in the core RFC). In that case a client just need to set a redirect and his/her contacts should process presence redirects correctly. Also, redirects can be used for temporary migration and not only for account removal.
