Fixed in 'reply-to-active-resource'; I introduced this regression while
Messages-ifying Gabble.

I'm a little bit suspicious of this, though. What happens if A1 messages B,
then signs off? We'll keep getting send errors, which the user can only escape
by closing and reopening the channel.

* Perhaps we should strip off the resource again on encountering a send error?
But this will annoy the user, who has to re-send their message for it to go
through.
* Perhaps we should strip off the resource when we get <gone/>? But this won't
go well when talking to a peer who keeps closing the conversation window.
* Maybe we should also strip off the resource if the current full jid goes from
an online status to an offline one? But this might go badly when talking to a
contact who often goes invisible.
