JabberBeans represents XML as Java objects rather than using something like
the W3 DOM objects, or JDOM. Because of this, the structure of an extension
currently needs to be represented by an object or series of objects. The
thing that is really needed for something like vCard support is a way of
using DOM or JDOM within JabberBeans - vCard is complicated enough that it
would be quicker to write or port a sax2dom converter class over and return
a DOM as a Extension object rather than writing a class which can handle all
of the structural options of vCard.
This would also allow you to do xhtml and other XML-based formats. It would
be great to have off-the-shelf Java packages which support the W3 DOM or
JDOM able to display incoming XML-based data.
