I encountered this while trying to add a self-contact to TpConnection.

The first fast path in tp_connection_get_contacts_by_handle, for the case where
all the desired contacts already exist, tries to avoid D-Bus calls. However, it
tries a bit too hard: it won't call GetContactAttributes even if the desired
features include information that ought to be supplied that way, and isn't
present on all of the already-existing contacts.

The code is a twisty maze of callbacks all alike, but I'm making progress...
