It's the same thing like with pop3 and imap. What you're asking is the
imap-like part of the jabber server. It has its advantages, but it
should not be the only option. Having the freedom to choose whether to
keep the messages on the server, on the client or not at all would be
the Right Thing (TM).
Client software will grow in size, oh well..
