a) what node-names are allowed in a pubsub-component

In ejabberd the "home-node" is:
"home/"+servername+"/"+username

It is possible to create an "instant node"
(jep-0060 Example 6. Client requests an instant node)
read the node attribute from result to get the "home node".
(then delete the instant node)

b.) what features are supported by a pubsub-compontent?
There is a bug in ejabberd.
jep-0060: Example 66. Entity Queries a node for information and meta-data
does not work using ejabberd.
I already reported the bug:
