Well, IMHO is worse if the presence server replies 200 for the
SUBSCRIBE and inmediately rejects the subscription with a NOTIFY
containing "Subscription-status: terminated;reason=rejected". In this
way it really seems that bob has blocked alice.
In the other hand, if the proxy responsible for bob rejects the
SUBSCRIBE from alice with 403 it's clear that it's a
realm/inter-provider issue.
