BitlBee displays XMPP <message> without <body> as "Message: "

Description

Since a while some Client/Jabberd combination has apparently been broadcasting XMPP messages like these to all contacts: 

<message xmlns="jabber:client" type="headline" to="me@jabber/BitlBee" from="alice@jabber2">
        <event xmlns="http://jabber.org/protocol/pubsub#event">
                <items node="http://jabber.org/protocol/tune">
                        <item id="4F5840009B674">
                                <tune xmlns="http://jabber.org/protocol/tune"/>
                        </item>
                </items>
        </event>
        <addresses xmlns="http://jabber.org/protocol/address">
                <address jid="alice@jabber2/Cray-2" type="replyto"/>
        </addresses>
</message>

It doesn't contain a <body>-Element, so BitlBee displays this as "Message: " from the user.

This is annoying, since it happens on every sign-on, on some clients apparently even multiple times.

Also, it's *not* actually a <message><body>Message: </body></message>, with which it might be confused.

BitlBee should probably just discard these useless messages.

Of course it displays them as "Headline: " instead of "Message: ". That's what happens when opening the ticket only days after debugging it on IRC..
