Heh, true.

That wiki page currently describes how to add "Jabber-ID" header support
to Emacs, Mail.app, Mutt, and Thunderbird. How about Eudora, KMail,
Notes, Outlook, etc.? (I don't use those, but it would be cool to
document Jabber-ID support for those.) And naturally our friends at
Google could add this to all outbound mail sent from Gmail. :-)
