Ok, I'll do that. Though this makes future enhancements a bit uneasy.
Say we want to transport a message by the server admins, this might be
the right place to do.
if (starts_with("message"))
fprintf(stderr, ....
Of course we can later add this in the future, but it would break older
clients (clients as of this patch series). That's why I like the idea of
adding a prefix here. Maybe just a "c:" as an abbreviation for capability.
But now making it short and concise makes it painful in the future when
we want to transport anything else apart from capabilities in this phase
of the protocol exchange. Of course we could have a capability "server-message"
indicating that after the capabilities we'll have a dedicated message to be
displayed to the user.
Yeah well that should do.
I'll just parse in a string_list for now.

No, I wasn't reading the fine documentation and assuming things I
should not.
