I don't agree, I think XMPP could be good solution, while yes attack surface is quite large but it will be in any case, because even if you create the very minimalist chat protocol possible (let's say basically use asymmetric cryptography for messages which are plaintext without any features) you still can have bugs in cryptography library, network stack, OS/kernel. This part will be same no matter what messaging protocol you use.

Exactly. And that's an argument for NOT minimizing the attack surface beyond these problems... how exactly? I mean, your argument is basically: "don't wash your hands, as there might be salmonella in the eggs anyway". Dafuq? -- Pozdr rysiek
