Description Simon McVittie 2009-08-04 03:38:53 UTC 
For the AccountManager to be able to guarantee that "the same" account details lead to the same account, ConnectionManager would need the following method:

IdentifyAccount(s: protocol, a{sv}: params) -> s: object_path_tail

For instance, for most protocols (e.g. XMPP) this would return normalize(params["account"]), but for IRC this would return normalize(params["account"]) + "__" + normalize(params["server"]) or something.
Comment 1 Simon McVittie 2010-06-09 05:42:59 UTC 
The Protocol objects in Bug #20774 also solve this, and nobody has suggested an alternative implementation, so I'll consider this a duplicate of #20774.
