From the doc of this signal: dbus_error_name : currently unused, but for exposing the dbus error name on a connection error in the future details : currently unused, but for exposing the error details on a connection error in the future This would be useful to allow Empathy displaying more info on connection errors (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=523895 )
This is easy to do after the necessary info is added to Account in telepathy-spec, which is itself blocked by having a trial implementation of that feature in MC (an MC branch that put the necessary information on the McdAccount, but didn't expose it to D-Bus, would be sufficient).

The spec is Bug #21200, and I've now done a trial implementation in Bug #28428 if you're interested.
Fixed in git for 0.11.7
