  /**
   * @brief An abstraction of a message session between any two entities.
   *
   * This is an alternative interface to unmanaged messaging. The original interface, using the simple
   * MessageHandler-derived interface, is based on an all-or-nothing approach. Once registered with
   * ClientBase, a handler receives all message stanzas sent to this client and has to do any filtering
   * on its own.
   *
   * MessageSession adds an abstraction to a chat conversation. A MessageSession is responsible for
   * communicating with exactly one (full) JID. It is extensible with so-called MessageFilters, which can
   * provide additional features such as Message Events, or Chat State Notifications.
   *
   * You can still use the old MessageHandler in parallel, but messages will not be relayed to both
   * the generic MessageHandler and a MessageSession established for the sender's JID. The MessageSession
   * takes precedence.
   *
   * Using MessageSessions has the following advantages over the plain old MessageHandler:
   * @li automatic creation of MessageSessions
   * @li filtering by JID
   * @li automatic handling of threading (i.e., XMPP message threads)
   * @li simpler sending of messages
   * @li support for MessageFilters.
   *
   * @b Usage:<br>
   * Derive an object from MessageSessionHandler and reimplement handleMessageSession() to store your
   * shiny new sessions somewhere, or to create a new chat window, or whatever. Register your
   * object with a ClientBase instance using registerMessageSessionHandler(). In code:
   * @code
   * void MyClass::myFunc()
   * {
   *   JID jid( "abc@example.org/gloox" );
   *   j = new Client( jid, "password" );
   *   [...]
   *   j->registerMessageSessionHandler( this, 0 );
   * }
   * @endcode
   * MyClass is a MessageSessionHandler here.
   *
   * In this example, MyClass needs to be MessageHandler, MessageEventHandler and
   * ChatStateHandler, too. The handlers are registered with the session to receive the
   * respective events.
   * @code
   * virtual void MyClass::handleMessageSession( MessageSession* session )
   * {
   *   // for this example only, we delete any earlier session
   *   if( m_session )
   *     j->disposeMessageSession( m_session );
   *   m_session = session;
   *   m_session->registerMessageHandler( this );
   *
   *   // the following is optional
   *   m_messageEventFilter = new MessageEventFilter( m_session );
   *   m_messageEventFilter->registerMessageEventHandler( this );
   *   m_chatStateFilter = new ChatStateFilter( m_session );
   *   m_chatStateFilter->registerChatStateHandler( this );
   * }
   * @endcode
   *
   * MessageEventHandler::handleMessageEvent() and ChatStateHandler::handleChatState() are called
   * for incoming Message Events and Chat States, respectively.
   * @code
   * virtual void MyClass::handleMessageEvent( const JID& from, MessageEventType event )
   * {
   *   // display contact's Message Event
   * }
   *
   * virtual void MyClass::handleChatState( const JID& from, ChatStateType state )
   * {
   *   // display contact's Chat State
   * }
   * @endcode
   *
   * To let the chat partner now that the user is typing a message or has closed the chat window, use
   * raiseMessageEvent() and setChatState(), respectively. For example:
   * @code
   * // user is typing a message
   * m_messageEventFilter->raiseMessageEvent( MessageEventComposing );
   *
   * // acknowledge receiving of a message
   * m_messageEventFilter->raiseMessageEvent( MessageEventDelivered );
   *
   * // user is not actively paying attention to the chat
   * m_chatStateFilter->setChatState( ChatStateInactive );
   *
   * // user has closed the chat window
   * m_chatStateFilter->setChatState( ChatStateGone );
   * @endcode
   *
   * To send a message to the chat partner of the session, use
   * @ref send( const std::string& message, const std::string& subject, const StanzaExtensionList& ).
   * You don't have to care about
   * receipient, thread id, etc., they are added automatically.
   *
   * @code
   * m_session->send( "Hello World!", "No Subject" );
   * @endcode
   *
   * To initiate a new chat session, all you have to do is create a new MessageSession and register
   * a MessageHandler with it:
   * @code
   * MessageSession* MyClass::newSession( const JID& to )
   * {
   *   MessageSession* session = new MessageSession( m_client, to );
   *   session->registerMessageHandler( this );
   *   return session;
   * }
   * @endcode
   *
   * @note You should never delete a MessageSession manually. Use ClientBase::disposeMessageSession()
   * instead.
   *
