           Summary: high-level API for ContactInfoFlags, SupportedFields
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: git master
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: low
         Component: tp-qt4
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: simon.mcvittie at collabora.co.uk
         QAContact: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org


Xavier's telepathy-glib ContactInfo branch (Bug #27676) adds a Feature on
TpConnection for ContactInfo's global properties:

ContactInfoFlags:
    * Can_Set: can we set our ContactInfo? (normally true on XMPP, but should
        in principle be false on Facebook if we had a reliable way to detect
        that "anti-capability")
    * Push: false on XMPP, true on Skype
SupportedFields:
    * the complete XEP-0054 set on most XMPP connections
    * a small subset of XEP-0054 on Google Talk servers
    * etc.

telepathy-qt4 should have similar API, although it's not a high priority and
nobody's actively working on it at the moment. Xavier's telepathy-glib code can
be used for inspiration, particularly after the branch becomes ready to merge.

This might be a good introductory task for someone new to telepathy-qt4?
