[jdev] Jabberd2, Flash Client and terminator character...

[dlb]

What if the Flash c2s code were implemented as a J2 transport ?
* Is the 1.4 version portable to J2 ?

Official support could be accommodated by JEP-124, or 
some other HTTP bound JEP. 

Flash requires a socket protocol transformation, 
not a xmpp definition. In fact, it's when you attempt
to define a Flash session that you corrupt the 
xmpp stream. So IMO we should externalize
the Flash c2s as a 'transparent' transport. Then we
could do away w/ the <flash:stream> scheme
and simply dedicate flash connections to a given port.

does this make sense ?
