           Summary: Connection, Channel: make handles implicitly be contact
                    handles
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: telepathy-spec
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk
        Depends on: 21787,23151
            Blocks: 23148


The strangeness of handles is justified by performance and normalization
considerations for contacts, but not for all other handle types.

In Telepathy 1.0 (Bug #23148), fixing Bug #23151 will allow us to discard the
Room handle type, and fixing Bug #21787 will allow us to discard the List and
Group handle types.

Having done that, we can remove Channel.TargetHandleType altogether - it will
implicitly be (TargetHandle == 0 ? NONE : CONTACT).
