The Matrix team had already confirmed that e2ee with XMPP is a 'contradiction in terms'. That's one of the reasons why I believe working on improving existing Internet Standards is better than switching to another trendy, non-standard protocol.

Ahh, thank you telling me. I guess that's off the cards then.

As much as I hate to admit it, I totally agree with you. While I personally quite like the API's and SDK's (although the JS SDK is pants, I've worked with it before), the UX of the client(s) just don't feel there yet, compared to what alternatives are offering.
