As far as I can see, this is not planned:
http://j2.openaether.org/mediawiki/index.php/Roadmap

But why do you need it in jabberd2, when it already exists in ejabberd?
Moreover, ejabberd is based on the language Erlang (and C for some parts)
which is very well suited for applications that do clustering,
fault-tolerance,... This will be probably more robust than implementing
these features in C 100% *from scratch*. So, my suggestion is to just try
ejabberd 0.9 or to wait a while until version 1.0 ;-)
