12:01              wjt | cassidy: include the channel's path

Also I imagine API like gboolean tp_text_channel_supports_message_type (TpTextChannel *, TpChannelTextMessageType) might be useful in C, where it's a PITA to check whether a GArray contains an element. Not a merge blocker.

Why on earth did I write that? I hate this kind of comments as well. Removed (squashed).

But you didn't remove the thing right below it…

+      /* Create an empty array */
+      self->priv->message_types = g_array_new (FALSE, FALSE,

+ * Check if message of type @type can be send on this channel.

                                          ^^^^ should be ‘sent’

ditto the next line.
