Looking at the SIP angle alone, you can get away with using a SIP Domain alias 
that is publicly resolvable & routable however the concept of SIP Domain alias 
does not extend over to the XMPP.  For XMPP to work, the SIP/XMPP Domain needs 
to be publicly resolvable and routable.  Even if we wanted to extend the domain 
alias concept over to XMPP, that would be difficult because the authorization 
mechanism that it uses (SASL) explicitly checks that the XMPP domain the IM 
client thinks it connects to lines up with what the server thinks its domain 
name is.  That check would not pass if we were to use domain aliases and XMPP 
authorization would fail.

You are correct.  I take it that you are offering to create that page - I look 
forward to seeing it :)
