Existence of an active Bonjour account would be really interesting
feature for small companies - intranet IM working out of the box.
Many of them now internally (and illegally) use ICQ, because their admin
doesn't know, how to configure jabberd up.
But I think, that hostname should not be configurable (but
auto-generated) and should not be a part of user ID (I don't exactly
know, how it is implemented and it does not work for me just now - see
bugzilla), so one could "IM joe, wherever he sits", but be able to see,
that joe is logged as joe@mach1room1 and joe@nb2.
SuSE people can look at FATE 302550.
