Expanding this into a real TODO list.

text-ui would need to act as an observer on all file transfers.
It can then show transfers, act also as an approver and show a completion when
done.

One hard is part is implementing this with the themes.. which is always
difficult.

Need FT to work 100% first.

Tasks: 
 - decide how this would work in terms of themes
 - make the the text-ui client registrar take two channels and match
targetContacts to the relevant window. For now acting as an additional
approver. An observer has access to the ChannelDispatchOperationPtr so it
should be a copy and paste job. Hard part is making the UI from
telepathy-chat-ui to ChatWidget not really messy.
 - we also need to remove the current horrible file transfer tracking code that
is used for drag & drop. It clutters ChatWidget..removing temp files does not
belong here.
