i didn't mean a protocol identifier (or name).... i meant the following:
instead of
kopeteapp->sessionFactory()->create(user, others, logFile)
having the following
kopeteapp->sessionFactory()->create(user, others, protocol, logFile)
where protocol is a KopeteProtocol*

since we're passing a KopeteProtocol, we're coding to the abstraction of the 
protocol, not a particular plugin. so we're safe that way.

we don't need to know anything about plugins whatsoever, it's just an API 
change. is that ok ?

cheers,
