Not sure what a session is or why it needs sync.
XMPP is decentralized, maybe even more than Matrix, since almost everyone uses the official server matrix.org.
I'm not sure if all of this is reason enough to switch to an non-standard protocol, fragmenting the small space of open IM protocols even further. It would be better to implement those features using existing Internet Standards.

The success of Matrix today is enough for me to distance myself from purely idealistic views
