What is the user experience here? Not like users being expected to do something "a bit like" setting up bitlbee, one hopes? :) If I've got this shiny new Matrix-replaces-Telepathy GNOME system, and I want to add a new account with a new protocol... what do I need to do? Let's assume I've just installed the appropriate distro package, and want to take it from there. (Although do feel free to talk about how it auto-installs the correct protocol package on demand, if you prefer).
