I'm afraid it will not be clear to the average user why styled messages sometimes show the keywords and sometimes they don't. I'd prefer one unified way to handle the keywords. And I think the current consensus was to keep the keywords. (You can make them a bit opaque which looks quite nice imho) cheers Daniel _______________________________________________ Standards mailing list Info: https://mail.jabber.org/mailman/listinfo/standards Unsubscribe: standards-unsubscr...@xmpp.org _______________________________________________
