Your client could just use "/" as a delimiter, and use group names like
this:
<iq type="set">
<query xmlns="jabber:iq:roster">
<item jid="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" name="Foo">
<group>Corporate/Engineering/Laboratory</group>
</item>
</query>
</iq>
There would be no server changes needed, and clients that didn't know the
naming standard would continue to work adequately.
