One additional thing that might make banning those users in a room
easier:
Encode the originating ip address in the resource using either a hash
or a symmetric encryption algorithm so that whenever a user connects
from the same IP, they get the same resource (or resource-prefix).
In IRC, this enables room operators to ban a specific IP without
disclosing the address itself.
That seems sensible.
heh... xmpp should be more like irc ;-)
Something like cryptopan?

Nice. That's way more advanced than what some ircds do.
What ircds usually did is map the ip/hostname to
cryptothing.provider.tld
This enables room operators to ban whole providers or even countries
with a single command.
cryptopan sounds like a good idea, but might be too difficult for the
average room operator.
