            Bug ID: 349607
           Summary: Flatten the list of contacts where a contact has only
                    one IM protocol
           Product: telepathy
           Version: 15.04.0
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: log-viewer
          Assignee: kde-telepathy-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: aspotashev at gmail.com

The contact list in ktp-log-viewer is a 2-level forest: people on the top level
(as tree roots), and their IM protocols as child nodes in trees.

If I use only Jabber (or, more commonly: "if the majority of my contacts use
only one protocol"), the forest looks like a set of couples. In each couple we
have redundancy: clicking on the root node does the same as clicking on the
child node.

I suggest to remove this duplication by merging the contact name with its
single protocol. This way we can save up to 50% of space in the contact list in
ktp-log-viewer.

Reproducible: Always
