Comment(by gdesmott):

 In this branch [1] I patched mod_ctlextra.erl to add the following
 commands to ejabberdctl:

 {{{
 {"srg-set-all-users group host", "add the @all@ pseudo-user to the group
 on host"},

 {"srg-set-online-users group host", "add the @online@ pseudo-user to the
 group on host"},
 }}}

 So the @online@ shared roster can easily be created using these 2
 commands:
 {{{
 ejabberdctl srg-create online schoolserver.random.xs.laptop.org  online
 online online
 ejabberdctl srg-set-online-users online schoolserver.random.xs.laptop.org
 }}}

 Problem: we need the server name to create and configure the group. So if
 we want to automatically create it when installing the package we need to
 ask to the user what's the server's name; which is impossible with RPM
 afaik.
