+    XEP-0172: User Nickname allows the addition of a <nick> element
+    in several stanza types, including <message> and <presence> stanzas.
+
+    The nickname contained in a <nick> should be the global, friendly or
+    informal name chosen by the owner of a bare JID. The <nick> element
+    may be included when establishing communications with new entities,
+    such as normal XMPP users or MUC services.
+
+    The nickname contained in a <nick> element will not necessarily be
+    the same as the nickname used in a MUC.
+
+    Example stanzas:
+        <message to="user@example.com">
+          <nick xmlns="http://jabber.org/nick/nick">The User</nick>
+          <body>...</body>
+        </message>
+
+        <presence to="otheruser@example.com" type="subscribe">
+          <nick xmlns="http://jabber.org/nick/nick">The User</nick>
+        </presence>
+
+    Stanza Interface:
+        nick -- A global, friendly or informal name chosen by a user.
+
+    Methods:
+        getNick -- Return the nickname in the <nick> element.
+        setNick -- Add a <nick> element with the given nickname.
+        delNick -- Remove the <nick> element.
