Indeed. In a way, I wish it were common to do it this way instead of

You could write a standalone S2S program, that speaks the component
protocol, and simply forwards all traffic to it. It shouldn't be too hard
to hack an existing server to this either.
That's more "multi host, multi server" of course. On the other side of the
spectrum I'd like to see a component protocol that allows protocol they
want all traffic to a certain *jid* forwarded to them, rather than just
the host part of the jid. That way you can make multiple services on a
single domain.
