I think we persist per sender, not per message... and we know proxy most of
that stuff, so I think a lot of users just show all messages... or we have
some complicated logic about when it's ok to show and when it's not which
is calculated on the fly and not exposed.
Not opposed to a standard, of course, just seems unlikely we'll use it.
