So when you though those logs, you were in gnome-shell, right? which version?
When you receive the message, gnome-shell first display a notification, and
ktp-text-ui is launched only when you click that notification, right?

>From the logs, what I see:
1) AddDispatchOperation is called on gnome-shell
2) gnome-shell claims the channel
3) gnome-shell calls DelegateChannels with Preferred_Handler=""
4) MC decide ktp-text-ui will handle it, this is random choice since MC has no
way to know empathy-chat would be preferred.

Since empathy-chat is the GNOME chat handler, I think it would make sense for
gnome-shell to give it in the Preferred_Handler, so I would consider this as a
gnome-shell bug.

Side note: from the log (did not check what code actually does) it also appear
that gnome-shell calls DelegateChannels twice, this is probably armless, but
worth fixing as well.
