That's a good point.

To expand, we could have the servers send Carbons to nick-shares, in fact,
but the MUC server might be sending duplicates (and three devices would
then yield one PM and two Carbons each).

I don't think we can solve this without specifying MUC nick-sharing
properly, which probably opens many cans of worms.

As Kev says, this is just another problem that needs solving in MUC2.
