< sjoerd> smcv: I think i remember what the main reasn was for 
          the splitting of the parameters, it meant that your user 
          password constantly flew over the bus which annoyed me

... which is no longer true under a "normal" configuration even in Telepathy
0.x, because we recommend SASL channels over secret parameters now. So this is
no longer an issue, and we don't really need to change this.
