           Summary: Provide a standard Text channel observer
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: git master
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: tp-qt4
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: will.thompson at collabora.co.uk
         QAContact: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org


TelepathyQt4 should provide a standard implementation of a text channel
handler. It should have a default constructor which gives you THT: Contact
channels with MessageQueue and MessageSentSignal prepared (and maybe
MessageCapabilities? I can't tell from its documentation what it does). We
might want to have other constructors for specifying other features, and also a
way to tweak the filter (so you can tell it you understand THT: Room and THT:
None channels too).

I think it should default to Recover: True.

It should have a single signal, something like
newTextChannel(Tp::TextChannelPtr).

(I've seen more than enough reimplementations of this for one lifetime.)
