Conversations in XMPP

I'm implementing an XMPP Chat and I was wondering if there is any XEP regarding lists of conversations (like WhatsApp). With message archiving, the clients can retrieve the message history with a given user, but if they open the application for the first time, they doesn't know which users they've previously talked to. I use ejabberd as my server.

Unfortunately, I do not know of such a XEP. Most XMPP systems assume you will have a roster. Then, it's easy to fetch chat history between you and a particular user just by querying the Message Archive (XEP-0313) with that user's JID.

That being said, I also believe a roster-agnostic Chat-partners XEP would be nice to have.
