Comment(by alsroot):

 It can't be distro or server specific. The current status on
 jabber.sugarlabs.org. There are some accounts (seems to be Sugar Shell
 created, i.e., with "/sugar" resource) that never [re]published proper
 nickname via pubsub, i.e., published bare jids as nicks.

 The way to check this issue on client side is looking into accounts.cfg
 file create by telepathy-mission-control, if it contains bare jids for
 "param-nickname"/"Nickname"/"NormalizedName" keys, thus, jabber server
 will never know nicknames.

 While working on announced telepathy rework in Sweets Distribution repos,
 I faced this issue and the way I suppressed it (it seems to be) is passing
 "nick" while creating account on telepathy-mission-control.
