Simon wanted me to state what parts of the conference interface Empathy
actually uses. There are two:

First of all, when it has a 1-1 chat, it looks at RequestableChannelClasses for
the connection and if there is a channel class with ChannelType=TEXT and
InitialChannels is in allowed properties, then it marks it as can be upgradable
to a MUC. If this is possible, then the "invite new person" option is
sensitive, otherwise it's insensitive.

Secondly, when you invite a new contact to a 1-1 conversation and Empathy has
already seen that this is possible with the InitialChannels property, it calls
CreateChannel with properties:

{ ChannelType: TEXT,
  TargetHandleType: NONE,
  InitialChannels: ['/old/object/path/'],
  InitialInviteeIDs: ['smcv at example.com']
}

where smcv at example.com is obviously the contact we want to invite to the chat,
and /old/object/path/ is the object path of the old 1-1 chat.

This is the only thing Empathy does with the conference interface. As a result,
a new window pops up when this new channel is created.
