"Never" is one of those words…

There is no technical reason that prevents Facebook providing S2S.
Even with their usage of your own email address as login.

When you add a new buddy to your Facebook chat app, say
[email protected], they could offer the option of using my
Facebook IM account ([email protected], who they know is associated
with that email address) or a remote Jabber/Gtalk/XMPP account.

The person identifier you use to add a buddy needs not be the actual
XMPP JID you'll use to communicate. It's just a mapping process at the
moment you add the buddy account.

Only political/strategy reasons, and possibly a little concern with
another attack vector, prevent Facebook from adding S2S.

Bye,
