idea, we are designing an addon for XMPP servers that will allow

of client being offline and sent to the client when this client

comes online. Since not all commands should be stored, it must be
possible to configure which types of commands are stored, based on
command nodes.
If I recall right, the authors of IO Data also had ideas about
long-running commands - is this the kind of thing you mean? (As in,
commands which take a sufficiently long time to execute that clients
might go offline, come back later, and check on progress). At least,
I vaguely recall this subject coming up before - in any case, a
structure for doing that would be worthwhile if there's support for
it.
If you're saying that you want command requests to be queued offline,
then yes, as Pedro says, you want queueing.
