... The client can do this for you over XMPP, no? Is there any
reason to visit a web page here?

It is out-of-band. Hopefully more secure. Maybe SMSing or Emailing
the OTP could work just as well.

I think it's a good idea to use different transports, but I question whether SMS or email is more secure than XMPP. I'd prefer the combination of XMPP and secure HTTP.
