Sounds good!

Yes; also one that's oriented toward the needs of Tube users...

Yeah, I want to do it anyway because I want to write a tube application, so 
once I get it to work with the new API, I'll put it up on the wiki.

I suspect it won't quite be the new API, because telepathy-python doesn't have 
AccountManager bindings but does have a little function that scans the bus for 
names beginning with "org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Connection." but that's minor.
