This interface fails to meet some features we're interested in.

 - Block PSTN calls vs Client-Client calls

Some protocols let us differentiate between how we want to block
Client-to-Client calls (i.e. between to instances of BadgerCommunicator) vs
calls that are coming into the BadgerCommunicator network from the PSTN.

 - Need PSTN specific blocking

e.g. Known_Numbers_Only (blocks those without caller-id)

 - Block non-channel Protocol features

e.g. Avatar, contact-info, showing number of buddies, external presence service

 - Rejecting video from some users

We need a mechanism to say whether what your default policy is for accepting
the video stream that forms part of a Call, or just the audio. Users who do not
automatically accept video from other users should be asked if they want to
also accept the video stream. [It should be easy to then whitelist
users/contacts/etc]. This is the anti-flasher setting.
