Comment 7 for bug 1533104

For everyone who missed the answer from Tiago Herrmann from 26-Oct-2015: (Launchpad doesn't show that as a related answer for the above question for some reason)

I believe taking this to UX to have them convert this to a user scenario would be good. The dialer could support other protocols/providers just like different SIM cards today. Turning all this into a pleasant unified communication UI is the real challenge, though.

As it stands today, we have a dialer, a phone book, a text messaging app, all not nicely integrated at all. Instead of catching up with iOS and Android Ubuntu Touch should provide a holistic, non-app approach to this problem. No apps, instead an slick API for plugging-in into the platform for both proprietary and non-proprietary protocols and providers.
