I don't know your application, but if (from user's point of view)
"registering XMPP server account to gain access to your system" sounds
reasonable, you could extend ejabberd (although i don't know how
easy/hard this is) to provide jabber:iq:register interface, but use it
to populate accounts in your (web) application database, not ejabberd
itself.
