           Summary: replace or remove MC 5's
                    Account.Interface.Compat.AvatarFile
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: low
         Component: tp-spec
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk

Maemo 5 uses various extended interfaces beyond what's in telepathy-spec,
including those in:

http://git.collabora.co.uk/?p=telepathy-mission-control.git;a=tree;f=xml;hb=master

One of those is Account.Interface.AvatarFile, which includes the "AvatarFile"
property. We should decide whether it makes sense to keep this, and if so, put
it in the real spec. My vote would be "no" unless there's a compelling reason
to keep it, since it breaks encapsulation (e.g. it prevents MC from storing
accounts in a database).
