[LAD] IM like GUI for netjack

[Eric Shattow]

If I may suggest, why go to all of this trouble?

Just make a client that registers with a webpage, ala ninjam.  (For those of
you not hip to ninjam, it is a collaborative jam-session program and each
instance can "phone home" to show the user's presence on a webpage).

In the case of local networks, advertise with avahi / mdns and be done. No
need to attach to an IM service or XMPP.
