It wasn't a terribly difficult hack, it just required plugging into it's poll / event loop an extra poll of the program generating the input. Something along those lines might suffice for a handy way to integrate the two resources.
Still, it seems that individuals joining the IRC server w/ the IRC transport is a readily available way to tackle this problem, although it doesn't have the added benefit of gradually allowing people to migrate to jabber MUC, with the expectation of phasing out IRC. :) *teases Jason* Aaron S.
