If you ask for my opinion, I have to say that I wouldn't trust such a
vendor if he would be multiplexing any communication from my home to his
system to a third party.
If you only want to know if it's possible to do something like is, then
yes, it probably is if you are willing to change the inner workings of
Vysper. Maybe you are better of with a more stripped down approach where
you scan the XMPP stream for relevant messages.
However, honestly, your general solution as I understand it, pretty much
sounds a lot like a hack.
