It's all about security.
The ICQ transport and your Jabber server are not the same entity on the network, so the transport can't change (add to/remove from) your actual roster. The best that could be done is for the transport to advertise what your "legacy" roster is using Roster Exchange[1], or it might be possible to apply something similar to Shared Groups[2].

Hello All, It is my understanding that the current ICQ transport will not "automagically" make the users in your ICQ roster appear in your Jabber Client's roster. Or, at least that used to be the case when I tested it a few months ago.
I understand that the original ICQ protocol might have had client-side rosters, but I doubt that is still the case. Can someone "clue me" (with or without a stick, your choice) into what would entail modifiying the current transport to provide such functionality and why this might not be desirable if there is any such reason?
