Some XMPP servers send a "message of the day" (Bug #39157) or ad-hoc
human-readable errors (Bug #26696).

IRC servers send all sorts of clutter (message of the day, etc.) during
sign-in, although that's less "human-readable" and more "debug log".

If we send ad-hoc commands to an IRC server (Bug #70434) we can't reliably
match responses to commands, because IRC is basically terrible.

We should have some sort of API for "the server sent us this, we have no idea
what to do with it but perhaps the user is interested"?
