To create a private channel, issue a 'private request' to
another user. The remote user will have to accept this request. A
new private channel will be created automatically and both users
will be placed in it, leaving any channels they might be joined to
at the time. If one of the users exits a private channel, the
second user will automatically exit it also and that private
channel will be destroyed.
If a private request was sent to
multiple users and one of them accepts it, the other private
requests become invalid and accepting them will do nothing.
