A MIX channel can use its own Pubsub nodes. A 1:1 chat could use a public spot, or PEP, or ... generally, the ACL situation seems different. I think we can adapt, but MUC seems like the low hanging fruit, and also happens to satisfy a particular use-case I have. > The approach sounds sane at first glance.
