Our reliable message delivery protocol that we use to replace stream
management makes half of message errors mostly unnecessary: we
consider that message is delivered to server only when we receive
confirmation with server ID and timestamp assigned to this message. If
you don't have server ID, you consider message as 'not sent'. If
session is broken, it is an 'error' and message should be resent after
reconnect. However, when message is relayed to remote server, the
problem remains.

I imagine that a proper solution to this problem might be something
like... reactions? If we do reactions with some kind of attached
message, errors might be a special kind of attachments. Thinking
further, I like it even more: reactions, as we know them in various
messengers, are essentially the same thing as delivery error in
various messengers: a badge with some icon attached to a message.
