[Telepathy-commits] [telepathy-spec/master] req21: when sending a file from a file manager, the file manager needs to be (or start out-of-band) the channel handler - I don't think we want a way to include a filename in RequestChannel and have a UI launched to send it

 Romeo right-clicks on a file in his file manager, chooses a "Send to User"
 option and chooses to send it to Juliet.
 
-Proposed implementation::
-
-    client calls some unspecified method on ChannelDispatcher (FIXME)
-
-    ChannelDispatcher calls RequestChannels (
-        0,
-        [
-            {'...Channel.ChannelType': '...Channel.Type.FileTransfer',

-    channel observers run
-    ChannelDispatcher returns it to the file manager, which does nothing
-        much with it
-    FIXME: channel approvers probably do not run?
-    FIXME: how do we choose which channel handler should take it?
+Proposed implementation: file manager is the channel handler
