I have no idea. 

I am currently compiling my changes in kopete plugins to implement status 
restoration.

The idea behind is that kopeteplugin defines method storeStatus and 
restoreStatus.

kopeteapp then adds storeStatusAll and restoreStatusAll.

AutoAway plugin then work by calling storeStatusAll and slotSetAwayAll.
Upon restoration, it only calls restoreStateAll.

Dummy versions of storeStatus and restoreStatus do nothing. To be more 
precise, storeStatus does nothing at all and restoreStatus sets status to 
available.

This way, AutoAway plugin works as it used to before.
But once protocol plugin redefines storeStatus and restoreStatus, it can 
return to its saved status, whatever it was and no matter what other plugins 
do.

While this might not be the best way to do this, I'll give it a try once it 
compiles and see if it works. 

Introducing KopeteStatus class looks like a good idea, the set of possible 
statuses is probably very similar with each protocol.

Cheers,
Lada
