[Telepathy] Rich presence

One question is where the boundary ought to be drawn between extended presence 
in telepathy and a tubes-based social networking application. Essentially, 
that's the extreme point of rich presence.

A social networking application could also do things like only revealing some 
information to some subset of contacts. Even with geographic location, one 
might not wish to broadcast stalking-quality data to all contacts...

Once such an application exists, which for now it doesn't, the pressure to put 
such extended data directly into a telepathy extended presence will probably 
diminish.
