This is just that easy.
I like the general idea, but the protocol (not the questions themselves obviously) should be standardised into a XEP so that not every client creates its own idea of how to do it. You should suggest it on the xmpp-standards mailinglist. > someone from this list have relevant skills and can implement required > plugins and someone else can persuade client authors to include this plugin > to the default list, which comes with the app. As I said above, try to consolidate that into a XEP first, then ask client authors to implement it.
