Don't know if it's the right place here and now but as I'm still
implementing it as a standalone component (acting like a proxy). 

There is no way to tell which port to connect to at session
establishment. Second there's no way to tell whether to use SSL.

therefor my proposal to change values of the 'to' attribute in session
creation request to sth. like: 

<body to="xmpp://jabber.org:5222"...> for non-ssl connections and
<body to="xmpps://jabber.org:5223"...> for SSL-enabled connections.

Cheers, Steve
