Out of curiosity, do we know if the cryptographic properties involved
in sending a known set of plaintext about like that stack up?
I wonder how everyone is fixated on crypto part while the hardest
part is messages replication itself: in the described scenario we
introduce several replicas of messages - client devices (which can
be many) and a server. This quickly rises several questions related
to a replication in distributed systems:
1) how to perform deduplication
also, if MAM is disabled on the server:
2) how to maintain message casuality (among client devices)
3) how to maintain replica merges after partitions (between client
devices)
While I like the idea of messages replication between user devices,
I think the implementation will be too complex for a regular XMPP
client developer
even if we write down all this in a XEP.
