If I offer a tube with a <message> stanza to a remote Jabber client that
does not support tubes, the message will just be ignored and I will wait
the reply forever. With an <iq> stanza, the remote client will reply
with an error:

<iq from=... type="error" to=... id="101" >
...
<error type="cancel" >
<feature-not-implemented xmlns="urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-stanzas"/>
</error>
</iq>

So my connection manager can close the tube and I can get a feedback
in the UI.
