Here is the text I have formulated to address this use case (by adding a
new section to XEP-0012)...

5. Inclusion in Presence
An online client MAY include last activity information when sending
presence updates. The prototypical use case is including the idle time
when automatically setting the user's <show/> value to "away" or "xa"
(extended away). For example, consider a user who has configured her
client to automatically change her presence to "away" after 10 minutes
of inactivity. The client could include an iq:last flag to specify how
long the user has been idle.
Example 10. Last Indication in Auto-Away
<presence from='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/balcony'>
<show>away</show>
<query xmlns='jabber:iq:last' seconds='600'/>
</presence>
If one of the user's contacts receives that presence notification with
delayed delivery (see Delayed Delivery [3]) on login in response to a
presence probe as described in XMPP IM [4], the contact will then know
how long the user has been idle (i.e., the number of seconds since the
delayed delivery timestamp, plus the iq:last seconds). Thus the contact
does not need to send an iq:last query.
Example 11. Last Indication in Auto-Away With Delayed Delivery
<presence from='[EMAIL PROTECTED]/balcony' to='[EMAIL PROTECTED]'>
<show>away</show>
<query xmlns='jabber:iq:last' seconds='600'/>
<delay xmlns='urn:xmpp:delay'
from='capulet.com'
stamp='2002-09-10T23:41:07Z'/>
</presence>
If no last indication is included in a presence notification, the
recipient MUST assume that the idle time is zero.

Yes, no, maybe?
