Here are some more.

I think we should be a little more careful than adding these indiscriminately:
it would sometimes be better to have higher-level objects (like
TpCapabilities), particularly when the keys are D-Bus property names.

However, I think these three cases do make sense as a plain a{sv}. We could
always add accessors to the TpConnection later; for instance, for the keys
currently defined in telepathy-spec we could have

    /* Might be NULL */
    gchar *tp_connection_dup_error_server_message (TpConnection *);

    /* true if TP_CONNECTION_STATUS_REASON_REQUESTED or
       { user-requested: True } */
    gboolean tp_connection_get_error_user_requested (TpConnection *);

    /* hopefully non-NULL if
       TP_CONNECTION_STATUS_REASON_CERT_HOSTNAME_MISMATCH */
    gchar *tp_connection_get_error_expected_hostname (TpConnection *);
    gchar *tp_connection_get_error_certificate_hostname (TpConnection *);

(The debug-message is already represented in the GError.)
