 Replying to [comment:2 deryni]:
 > You setting your real name in the vCard doesn't force the remote client
 to use that name, especially if they never actually get that information
 (there's no requirement for them to do so).

 Yes, that was what I had in mind, but it's not an important flaw.

 On the other side, in the conversation window my own nickname appears in a
 complete form (user at server.com/LaptopAAAAAAAA), which is a little
 impractical.
