Now I understand what you’re getting at. I still find it not a good idea to remove the meta-characters even with opt-out, because sending programs not aware of XEP-XXXX Styling don’t know they have to opt-out, and thus their messages might still be mis-represented. To allow removal of meta-characters, opt-in is mandatory IMO. kind regards, Jonas
