Where these users get notified but don't know why. This was an early
complaint when I implemented https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0224.html which
I solved by highlighting the message as "this one is to everyone" in the UI.
But when it's not to everyone, and indeed if 99% of the time there will be
your name in the message, it makes more sense to highlight a name then to
add some other UI. At which point you have a dependency on whatever does (a)
anyway and they might as well be together if you need them both...
