For reliability requirements over wireless connections: don't use BOSH; do use Stream Management (XEP-0198)

I have seen (mainly in wireless devices or situations) that sometimes
things are simply lost. Specifically, a message sent from A to B, but B
have not seen it and will not. In situations of "not so good" connection,
this is more frequent. In such situation I have seen that a probably good
solution is to repeat messages, requests or whatever applies.

In chats this sometimes leads to repeated sentences, acceptably. In other
situations this may lead us to smaller waiting periods (since we won't
have to wait the *maximum* timeouts, which are usually much higher than
the periods we need to know that it is *much probably a lost message*.
