[JDEV] jabber:iq:search question

[Peter Saint-Andre]

Hmm, does this technique rely on sending multiple IQ results with the same
'id' attribute? If so, that's in violation of the XMPP core doc, which
specifies that the value of an ID must be unique within a stream (this is
consistent with the XML spec).
