Ok, now I'm with you.  Maintaining the list of users that are allowed to
enter given room sounds like something useful nut I fail to see how
supporting such a feature implies that we need XML-RPC methods to add
and delete chat rooms.  Why can't this be driven from the sipxopenfire
xml configuraion file?
