That is a good idea. And also brings up an already asked question. Would it be
better to de-generalize the <beacon> element into explicit <cell>, <wifi>,
<bluetooth>, and as suggested, <ip> elements?
Pros/cons anyone?

What about adding another optional element to the query to allow the lookup
of location information based on IP address?:
<iq from='ham...@shakespeare.lit/phone'
id='q02'
to='location.shakespear.lit'
type='get'
xml:lang='en-US'>
<locationquery xmlns='urn:xmpp:locationquery:0'>
<ip>127.88.22.22</ip>
</locationquery>
<iq>
Sometimes IP address is "good enough" for applications.
Thanks
