It seems a little odd that the resource identifier mapping in 5.1.1 (mapping the XMPP resource identifier to the PIDF tuple ID) does not admit of any complementary reverse mapping in 5.2 from PIDF to XMPP. If the two are equivalent in one direction of the mapping, why not in both?

The notes in 5.1.5 about the 'show' element refer to the example urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:pidf:im namespace from the PIDF document (as does 5.2.10). While there has been ongoing work to provide extended presence constructs like "away" and "dnd" and so on, it has not been in that namespace (the RPID work, for example, uses pidf:status:rpid-status). The text here strongly suggests that work on populating the pidf:im namespace is underway. It might be best to state that this is just an example, and that ns:pidf:im may or may not be populated in the future.

It might be worth mentioning in Section 6.1 that some non-XMPP protocols have a concept of a limited-duration subscription that must be periodically refreshed. Accordingly, an XMPP-to-whatever gateway might be responsible for sending periodic refreshes to the non-XMPP side which have no corollary in the XMPP protocol. The reverse case (whatever-to-XMPP) is covered well by the last paragraph of Section 6.2.
