Hi,
have you considered to implement XTLS for XMPP in Pidgin? The idea was
mentioned here:
https://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/5225

XTLS can be used to secure the whole XML stream with end-to-end
encryption (with XEP-0247), it can secure Jingle File Transfers
(XEP-0234) and with SRTP it can be used to secure Jingle VoIP.

https://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-meyer-xmpp-e2e-encryption-02.html

Because XTLS is based on the TLS protocol, it doesn't offer
deniability of OTR, but it can support the Perfect forward secrecy.


For example encryption of Jingle File Transfers is already implemented
in Gajim
