Apparently not. Why you are proposing so non-intuitive combination of
columns "contact" and "remote_name"? Without text comments nobody would
be able to understand what these two columns represent something which
belongs together or at least more closer... And I really do not
understand from that scheme nor comments how is multi user chat stored.
Also I have no idea how will be stored additional information like
jabber resource.
