I looked into this (a while ago) and there doesn't seem to be a way to
do such validation with libidn. If any other prep-lib is capable of
doing it, gloox would need to be ported there.

precise feedback to users when their JID is invald or may be modified
by the string prep algorithms. Currently I can only check if the JID
is valid using the bool cast operator, and maybe check if the string
representation is identical to what I passed to the constructor.
I would like to know:
- If the string is really not looking like a JID (for example, no @)
- If the username is too long (I think the limit is 1023 characters)
- If there are unprintable characters, spaces or control characters in it
- If a reserved character is used (my current code checks for :@<>'"&
but I don't know if that's appropriate)
Could gloox provide somthing of that level of detail when validating a JID?
