           Summary: Add a TplLogManager::new-entity signal
           Product: Telepathy
           Version: git master
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: logger
        AssignedTo: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: pochu27 at gmail.com
         QAContact: telepathy-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org


It would be very useful to know when a new entity is added (i.e. when the
logger adds logs for some entity for the first time, so
tpl_log_manager_get_entities_async will/would return different entities). My
use case is updating the list of entities in Empathy's history window without
having to poll (by calling _get_entities) the logger.

The signal may just be ::entities-changed without specifying if the entities
have been added or removed, or how many, so the users need to call
_get_entities_async() after they get ::entities-changed to know what the
current entities are.
