Android has Conversations, which has pretty good XEP support. But I can count on one hand the number of desktop clients that support this, and none of them are Pidgin[0] or Adium, which are probably the two most popular desktop XMPP clients (though it's hard to know for sure). Gajim supports it but not for multi-user chats[1].
Chat history is certainly not a solved problem overall in XMPP.
>It's only not a problem with Matrix yet because they have a single client
Matrix has lots of clients, the difference is it has an official reference client that supports (almost) all the protocol's features.
