We already started an API with very similar goals on Tapioca project.
Take a look at:
http://tapioca-voip.sourceforge.net/wiki/images/1/18/Tapioca-class-diagram.png

Actually, we have implementations of this model in QT, C# and GLib,
which are tapioca-qt, tapioca-sharp and tapioca-glib (see the
project's svn) . All of them built on top of telepathy's  spec.

Maybe We could combine this API with libgossip, to provide this widget
library you suggested.

Any ideas?
