Yeah, sure. Though I only do bets in chocolate or beer, I do bet XMPP has some kind of extension built for it already, you just don't want to support it.

We so needed another walled garden of communication platforms.

It does (though these particular three I don't know how common they are); Probably in IRCv3 too for all I know.

UPDATE: changed because I read this wrong; but the answer is still "yes, this would have been relatively easy for them to do".
