Perhaps you could have 2 models and 2 contact list widget, initialize
both, and hide one of them...
Anyway, if it is not worth, then I suggest to periodically check if the
feeder is running (does nepomuk have a signal for that?), and eventually
set the contact list to disabled + perhaps a warning with a button to
restart the contact list (that will restart in the old mode since the
feeder is not running).

By the way, is the online status queried directly to telepathy, or is it
stored in nepomuk like it was long time ago?
