Well, I would even call that idea less crazy than HTTP-over-XMPP or VNC-over-XMPP, as this allows to have something like hamachi where you just rightclick and select VPN. And if that's a standard, that would work with more than just one client ;). So this might be once again something where something proprietary (Hamachi) could be replaced by something free using XMPP :).
