I'd like to hear more about the reasons for your disagreement. I am not
entirely sure if participants in this discussion always talked about the
exact same thing. Maybe a concrete example would help:

Server 'example.org' receives stanza from 'foo.org' with a <stanza-id
by='u...@example.org' id='…'>

Should the 'example.org' server sanitize this <stanza-id/> or not? Which
JIDs exactly do you think are out of scope? Could you give an example?
