Or make the connection blobs by default, and some blobs could contain
complete XML documents, like this:
lenght of first block
<message to='bla'....>
length of second block
<iq ...>
length of third block
some binary data.
It is as much drastic approach as the blobs, it changes the protocol
from the very basic ground. Furthermore, you can extract the stanza and
feed it to any XML parser.
