The bug still occurs on Quantal Quetzal, with version 0.1.11-2 of telepathy-idle.
It is triggered whenever a connection isn't available - like at the moment of a redial, all 24 hours to my provider. A try ... except ConnectionError: could set them an end.

You can reproduce it powering off the router
