I was fishing for some potential uses for XDBM in our code this morning
(9:40 UTC) and had a look in mod_basic/offline.c. Here are a few thoughts:

It looks like:

 * ...you get your offline'd messages sent to you immediately when you log
   on.
 * ...you only get messages for your current resource.

Isn't it likely that:

 * ... I may be on a slow connection and doesn't want any offline'd
   messages?
 * ... I may want to archive all messages at one resource for the sake of
   completeness?

And we who listen to the sky, or walk the dusty grade,
Or break the very atoms down, to see how they are made,
Or study cells, or living things, seek truth with open hand;
The profoundest act of worship is to try to understand.

-- Catherine Faber, "The Word of God"
