The 0045+0280 interaction has made me think about the other implications of nick sharing, so I've written down everything that came to my mind:
http://wiki.xmpp.org/web/MUC_Nick_Sharing Please feel free to extend, modify, and improve the little pieces of information. I still think that 0280 should not be advanced until we figure out the 0045-interop. It also seems that some implementations ignore the type="chat" requirement and also forward "normal" messages. Relaxing the 0280 specification, as Kev promised to write up tomorrow, is one important building block for fixing the 0045 interop. IMO, the second building block will be to make more specific recommendations to implementors of 0280+0045. The proposals listed in the wiki [1] all have their drawbacks, but so far nothing better has emerged from the discussion.
