Thanks for the suggestion!

Some notes:

  • XEP-0178: Best Practices for Use of SASL EXTERNAL with Certificates

    Username is embedded in client certificate. Seems to be supported by servers, e.g., ejabberd.

  • ejabberd does not support just performing TLS peer verfication

    Though this could be done using an intermediary TLS proxy.

  • libstrophe support
