We also said that we would like to have a class KTelepathy::Channel that
wraps Tp::ChannelPtr and allows to retrieve a KTelepathy::ContactSet

Also channels might want to store information relative to the channel like:
 - Status on the channel (for all channels): joined, pending local,
   pending remote. (Probably we want also convenience methods to get
   a ContactSet for each group?)
 - DBus Name (for dbustube channels only)

So we want to add some method to KTelepathy::Contact to store/retrieve
data relative to a channel

I wanted to implement this but I have too few time a the moment :(
