I see. Of course I accept your design decision, but I do not really see why 
local setting could not simply override a global setting (as in: local accounts
use global presence setting if not specified otherwise). You'd simply need a
further option "Default" for the local presence selection. I do not see major
conceptual differences here to how other applications handle the global/local
strata (though I do not know the telepathy internals).

I also think it is a major limitation in functionality. I have currently 6
different IM accounts, each for different purposes. If I open my university
jabber account for a virtual consultation hour for students or if I do a
business chat, I do not want to be reachable by my private buddies; and vice
versa.
