 This ticket is about adding support for IBB for file transfers on XMPP as
 a fallback method when a socks5 bytestream is not possible to established.
 Actually XEP-0096 states that clients MUST support both these methods.

 So I have started to implement this in libpurple...
 I'm trying to design the "IBB module" to be resuseable, I'm thinking about
 the possibility at some point to support it as a Jingle transport method,
 among others...

 I will submit a patch here as soon as I have something working, and
 depending on how much work there is on my other libpurple-related
 commitments (foremost vv and xmpp custom smileys) :)
