New description:

 We should subscribe to the presence of our friends on XMPP. When we turn
 off the shared roster, we won't get presence for anyone unless we do this.
 This will at least let us see the presence of our friends until we have a
 long term solution.

 Where is the list of friends stored? Does the presence service have any
 way of knowing when a friend has been added/removed? Is friendship
 bidirectional? I.e. if somebody friends you, do you automatically friend
 them?

Comment:

 Please do not set milestones.

 Adding a feature at this date for update.1 must have truly compelling
 reasoning.

 I'd like to talk about this first.
