One thing I was thinking about is determining the amount of time a user
has been "idle". The way it works now is that, using this XEP, you'd
send out an <iq/> get to find out.
There is no way for a client to "push" this information as part of it's
presence. One workaround could be to issue an <iq/> requesting "last"
info when we receive an updated presence from a contact. But this
wouldn't allow a client to be idle while still remaining "available",
which could be desirable.
I guess this might be out-of-scope for this XEP, and might be better
handled in the core protocol, maybe...
