There is no way to tell the server this via protocol.... In the IETF drafts, it
says the server must store "the request" and send it when the user becomes
available. It does NOT specify what "the request" is.

IMO, Servers should be saving the entire packet and sending it, but I'm 99% sure
that this is not the way jabberd-1.4's JSM does this (it just stores a "bit" in
the roster item).
