Direct invitations have the benefit that the receiver can verify the identity of the sender. With mediated invites, a malicious MUC could trick a user into joining (and exposing their full JID) by pretending to forward an invitation from a known friend of the user. Unfortunately, direct invitations don't automatically add the recipient to the member list of access-restricted MUCs, so we have two not-quite-solutions here for a seemingly trivial problem. Georg
