[BA] Consider a scenario in which an XMPP MUC room is used to share information between police, medical and fire departments relating to an emergency call (perhaps one from a disabled user utilizing XEP-0301). You would not want an emergency caller to share an MUC room with other callers, so that a room with a unique name would need to be created. >
