           Summary: Consider renaming 'account' parameter to 'username'
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: tp-spec
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: will.thompson at collabora.co.uk


I just had to explain to someone that rather than parsing the last component of
an Account's object path, they should:

• Get the "Parameters" property on the Account;
• Look up the "account" key in that dict.

It's confusing enough that there's a property called Parameters (I always get
these two confused), but to have one of the parameters of an Account be
"account" is perverse...
