Actually the fix for this problem is very small, just one line in jadc2s
has to be changed. With this patch jadc2s (the client connection manager
used at jabber.org as well as on some other bigger servers) checks if a
connection is owned by the user that is the expected receipient of a
packet. If not its bounced to the session manager that than knows that
the connection of the former user does not longer exist.
