This isn't actually XEP-0234: it's a different Jingle-based thing, (re)invented
by Google ("Jingle sharing"). We implement it to be interoperable with GTalk.

We don't implement XEP-0234 yet.

This is likely to be XEP-0096 (Stream Initiation file transfer), which is
implemented in many XMPP clients, but not Google Talk.
