[JDEV] Jabber - Scripting Language

[temas]

I know I'm jumping into this _WAY_ late, but I just wanted to point out 
that the server has the beginnings of server side "scripting", we just 
call it filters.  Take a look at the filter namespace and what it 
offers.  It needs a lot of work, and there have been a ton of ideas 
bounced around for it (most of what's being said here).  Any thoughts on 
enhancing this more since it has a base?
