That, I believe, was his point.

Suppose that we *or libpurple* do something like this:

	//Pseudo-code
	[contact removeFromGroup];
	[contact setGroup:[groupsFromRosterPush objectAtIndex:0U]];

Now, suppose that (for whatever reason) the order of the groups  
changes from one push to the next.

I think it's a case worth investigating, once we have some XML dumps  
to look at.
