It's not so much about recreating all of the methods in account, it's about 
recreating starting _our_ text chat, _our_ calls etc, where we want to set our 
handler. I think it's fairly sensible to do it for everything where KTp ships 
the service at the other end.

If you wanted an arbitrary streamtube to something, like kbattleship, you 
wouldn't use this. You'd be using the basic account->ensureStreamTube(.......), 
and (IMHO) that's fine.
