Yeah, I've been meaning to rename it (as you can see by the comment above).
I just keep putting this off because it'll mean going through almost ALL of the QML code.

to be honest, I'm not sure anymore.

I think it was just ConversationTarget that we needed to do that for, as MessagesModel has a default constructor.

I took a quick look through and I'm not sure how. What I needed this class to do was take a Tp::ContactPtr and spew out anything that could be useful from it.

If I'm to use ChannelContactModel, either I'd have to add new properties, which would destroy the point of it being a model. Or I have to add extra roles, but then the only way to notify they've changed is with the dataChanged signal which would update all roles for the contact, which I think would be pretty wasteful.
