That's sad... I imagine a lot of toys that could be based upon it.

For one thing, the jabber.org mailing lists... it would be neat to be
able to set subscription options through Jabber.

The client sends:

<iq from='legoscia at charente.de/emacs' to='legoscia at charente.de/emacs' type='set' id='emacs-iq-16463.21421.112535'>
  <command xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/commands' node='presence' action='execute'/>
</iq>

The server responds:

<iq from='legoscia at charente.de/emacs' to='legoscia at charente.de/emacs' type='result' id='emacs-iq-16463.21421.112535'>
    <command xmlns='http://jabber.org/protocol/commands'
             sessionid='jabber-ahc-presence'
             node='presence'
             status='executing'>
        <x xmlns='jabber:x:data' type='form'>
          <title>Set presence of legoscia at charente.de/emacs</title>
          <instructions>Select new presence status.</instructions>
          <field var='show' label='Show' type='list-single'>
            <value>online</value>
            <option label='Online'><value>online</value></option>
            <option label='Chatty'><value>chat</value></option>
            <option label='Away'><value>away</value></option>
            <option label='Extended away'><value>xa</value></option>
            <option label='Do not disturb'><value>dnd</value></option>
          </field>
          <field var='status' label='Status text' type='text-single'><value>At home</value></field>
          <field var='priority' label='Priority' type='text-single'><value>10</value></field>
        </x>
    </command>
</iq>

The 'from' and 'to' attributes are equal in this example, and that's
why I'm asking ;-)

The user fills in the x:data form, the client sends it, and the server
changes its presence and sends a notification of success.
