Looking again at XEP-0045,
I don't see a reason why a request for voice should be handled in
another way than a request for membership. ;)
In fact I would suggest to replace both with an unified "request for
affiliation" which should work like the request for membership in 7.10
(with an attribute 'affiliation' and maybe a xmlns something other than
'jabber:iq:register').
Is there a strong reason to change this now, other than protocol hygiene?
No, but maybe adding some muc-features which are making it obvious what
is supported by the server is an option. I don't know if there is an
implemention which supports e.g. those voice-requests as described,
those I've tested seem not to have it implemented.
If you test more implementations and find that none of them support the
feature (and the developers say they have no plans to implement the
feature), then it might make sense to remove the feature from the spec.
Since sending a private messages to administrators is always possible
(even without voice), I think there isn't really a need for this feature.

Alexander
