For me (at least the thing I was planning to do when I thought I'll
have the time to implement this) it is one plugin with multiple
capabilities.

Like with jabber/telepathy/or-whatever not all IM protocols support
the same things. Not even all jabber servers support same things.

This could be neat, but I don't know whether it would be a safe bet
that once implemented detection for this would work. Web people don't
really like API back-compatibility, and especially html footprint b-c
;)
