Hey guys,

I know that otr is requested quite often and that you already did some
thinking. But as otr is still not available I might suggest an idea I
had when thinking about it.

As far as I understand telepathy correctly mission control is used the
somehow bring together channels between connectors and Gui elements.
My idea is to append an otr module of some kind to mission control.

As far as I know there is some initial request send from one client to
another in plain text to initialise the otr encrypted communication. So
I thought maybe it is possible to check this some how within mission
control an if such request is send and the accepts to create an
encrypted channel instead of opening a normal one.

I eager to hear your opinons on this. If you think this might fit in the
architecture I might start hacking it. But I wanted to be sure that it
does not screw up your concepts behind telepathy

greetings
fabian
