Exclusive user and alias namespaces should begin with an underscore after the
sigil to avoid collisions with other users on the homeserver. Application
services should additionally attempt to identify the service they represent
in the reserved namespace. For example, ``@_irc_.*`` would be a good namespace
to register for an application service which deals with IRC.
.. WARNING::
If the homeserver in question has multiple application services, each
``as_token`` and ``id`` MUST be unique per application service as these are
used to identify the application service. The homeserver MUST enforce this.
