Isn't that what resources are for?

I log on from home with trejkaz at jabber.zim.net.au/home, and from work with 
trejkaz at jabber.zim.net.au/work.  Other users should be able to easily hover 
over me in their roster to see which resources are online.

That being said, putting your location in the resource has no semantics, just 
like putting your location in your nickname has no semantics.

Call me crazy, but I thought JEP-0112 [1] was more than acceptable for
