Sure there are valid applications for XEP stream compression.

But I don't think that just because something as an application does not 
need that it gets added to the basic IM suite. IMO there should be only 
the smallest set of protocols we think they have to be supported in any 
case. If we add to many protocols to the basic IM suite it will result, 
the importance of this list gets lost.

I'd propose that on the basic IM suite we add the protocol we consider 
to be a must of any implementation. On the intermediate IM suite we 
should add the protocols we consider to be a should implement.
