Could you elaborate a bit more on what you need this feature for. Since
implementing it, we've found one client which is broken by the presence
of client-ids and there may be more which mysteriously stop working.
Possibly only sending the client-id under certain circumstances may work
for you, without breaking sensitive clients.
