[JDEV] Is the 'to' field ignored during accept component stream negotiation?

It appears (after looking at the 1.4.2 jabberd code) that the 'to'
attribute during initial stream negotiation with an accept component is
ignored.


I.e. I say... (note the missing 'to' field)

<stream:stream xmlns:stream='http://etherx.jabber.org/streams'
xmlns='jabber:component:accept'>

And Jabber happily responds...

<?xml version='1.0'?><stream:stream
xmlns:stream='http://etherx.jabber.org/streams' id='3DF5513C'
xmlns='jabber:component:accept' from='realtime'>



What's the correct usage of this field?  Should it be the jabber
hostname?  The same address we've addressed the socket to?  Or is it an
artifact and can be conveniently ignored/not sent?

Thanks much,

Mike
