Title
Make LJ Talk able to listen to 21/80/8080/443 ports

Short, concise description of the idea
Make LJ Talk able to listen to additional "standard web" ports.

Full description of the idea
Due to security restrictions 21, 80 and 443 are only allowed outgoing ports in some organizations. So, LJ Talk becomes unusable there because the only port that LJ Talk listens to is 5222.
It would be nice if LJ Talk is able to listen to another "standard web ports" in additional to its native port 5222 (as GTalk, Yahoo, MSN messenger etc are able to do).
An ordered list of benefits
  • LJ Talk would be usable even behind strict firewalls
An ordered list of problems/issues involved
  • I'm not aware of any performance/security/functionality issues regarding to this suggestion...
