Well if you want my opinion, it's simply too much for emoticons.. what you're 
suggesting is more along the lines of for example an MMS message.. wich is 
something that could give jabber a little edge over other messaging systems maybe, 
but it should be defined for that purpose then (along with things like sound). Not 
emoticons..

If I look at all the discussion about it here I think the most far we could get is define a 
list of emiticons used by jabber. Clients can simply choose to support property clients 
emoticons like MSN then or not (after all you ussually know to wich gateway or user 
you send a message :)
