Considering all the good comments, withdrawing this proposal.

As many people already have a non-diaspora xmpp accounts they use, allowing seamless integration would make the chat experience in diaspora better. Since contacts are primarily handled by diaspora aspects, having ability to modify them via aspects is natural.

This makes aspects more complex and I'd like to avoid that (currently).

XMPP contact management should stay as much inside JSXC and the XMPP server as possible.

Aspects are an important part of generating the streams as well as posting contents as we use them as a source to JOIN all the recipients together. Adding non-diaspora contacts creates an insanely large amount of complexity in the whole code base.

Maybe add a separate grouping mechanism for xmpp contacts.

I do agree user experience comes first here.

I'm not saying this can or should be done, I'm just voting regarding the user experience "want". How is a different story.

As we are presenting chat a major feature, I think it is sensible to have a provision to manage all the contacts - both diaspora and non-diaspora alike - too.

I would rather have our developer resources put toward enabling group chats, improving the chat design, and stabilizing the chat in general.
