then it's a telepathy bug, since telepathy has the services plugged into its
framework.
Skype would then be just another service, plugged into telepathy, just like
Google Talk, Yahoo Chat, Facebook Chat, Jabber, MSN etc..
How are these things called in Telepathy? Service Modules? ahh.. got it:
Conntection Managers.

So what this bug wants is a new connection manager for Skype within
Telepathy..
