You might also try presence elements instead of message elements -

Typically I would map game movement to presence elements, and game
actions via messages - thoughts?
As long as its always directed presence elements (ie, with a 'to') that is
being sent out. I have vague worries of such a game engine being used
with a user's regular jabber credentials and annoying everyone on their
roster with floods of spurious update information.
Quite apart from that, its a good idea. It means that regular jabber
servers can be used on the servers, and the normal availability mechanism
will nicely kick when a game connection disconnects.
