[jdev] Jabberd2, Flash Client and FOCUS

[dlb]

I don't even know whether this is supported w/ the newest Flash player.
You're right though, it'll try to parse any xml - even invalid xml, hence
the stream element issue.

So perhaps externalizing Flash stream handling is the best approach.
I'm thinking of a simple component that intermediates sessions between a
Flash player and J2 server, conforming their respective streams. So the
component provides J2 w/ a compliant XML stream, and handles all of the null
byte weirdness required by the XMLSocket object.

The question then is which JEPS a/o other features are broken by this
approach ?
