Any thoughts either way on my "Chat Marker" proposal?

The more I think about it the more it seems to be the correct solution.

The implementation is independent of Message Archiving and as it is only a
marker the amount of storage and bandwidth required is minimal.

If people thing it is a good idea I can draft an XEP.

Regards

Spencer
