Old Multi User Chats based on XEP-0045 do have their issues with mobile clients that cannot use a persistent TCP connection to the server.

To address this there is "Mediated Information eXchange (MIX)" defined in XEP-0369, followed by supplemental XEPs:

• XEP-0369 - Mediated Information eXchange (MIX): https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0369.html

• XEP-0405 - Participant Server Requirements: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0405.html

• XEP-0403 - Presence Support: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0403.html

• XEP-0406 - MIX Administration: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0406.html

• XEP-0404 - JID Hidden Channels: https://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0404.html

There already client & server implementations of this out there in the wild.
