[Telepathy] Get existing connection in clients

[NAVEEN VERMA]

Hi,

The similar issue I am also facing in my project. If an account is already
loggedin in Connection manager, and by any reason the my implementation
crash or somthing goes worng and I need to login same account again then CM
return error that object already exist.

I am also looking for some better solution because then there is no way then
restart connection manager also.

-Regards
Naveen
