You are right JEP-0045 tells me in "9.1.2 Creating an Instant Room", for
an instant room I must send an empty iq-query-x-'jabber:x:data'. But
this means that a simple <presence/> won't work, because it will lock

which is not locked until it is configured. the room. This makes JEP-0045 incompatible to GroupChat.

Now that I look at it again, the JEP is probably not as clear as it could be about room creation. The intent is that if you don't include the muc extension in the initial presence, the service will create the room for you and not wait for the config (i.e., backwards-compatible with old-style groupchat), but that if you do include the muc extension then the service requires you to go through the configuration steps. But I see that's not 100% (or even 50%?) clear in the spec, so I'll clarify that in the next version.
