yes, the autoupdate-agent has no way of knowing which clients are in use
everywhere in the world.

also it is a much better thing to send the autoupdate request through
jabber than to poll a website or something, as the client has already
made it's connection to jabber server, you have less work and more
reliable way of passing on the request.
