Connection.Interface.Requests doesn't require NewChannels to always be emitted (even if the Channel was create by say CreateChannel).. While telepathy-glib implementations do it correctly, this should probably be cleared up. Specifially Empathy will not listen for NewChannel if the connection supports the Requests interface
Proposed fix at <http://git.collabora.co.uk/?p=user/wjt/telepathy-spec-wjt.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/bug-19183>.
Approved, merged. Will be in 0.17.24
