* Plain stream elements, ie. everything that is <b>not a stanza</b> as defined

* Everything else should sublcass this class instead of {@link Packet}.
* <p>
* It is important to cleanly distinguish between stanzas and non-stanzas. For
* example plain stream elements don't count into the stanza count of XEP-198
