[JDEV] Jabber.org Client Chart

[Sebastiaan 'CBAS' Deckers]

I'd like to point out that my client does treat headline messages in a 
different from chat|normal messages.  Here's a quick screenshot:
http://www.rhymbox.com/headlines.jpg

The specs should add some more information about how these headlines 
should/could be used.  For example, when you click on the popup box, 
RhymBox will load the URL that was in the jabber:x:oob, or if there is 
none there, it will look at the body of the message for any "http://..." 
matches.
Some services add jabber:x:expire elements to the message, is there any 
specification that tells client developers how to use this information?
