      <tp:changed version="0.17.16">strengthened uniqueness requirements
        so (CM name, protocol, token) is unique; previously only
        (our Account, remote contact identifier, token) was required to be
        unique</tp:changed>
      <tp:docstring xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
        <p>An opaque token chosen by the connection manager, representing
          a particular avatar.</p>

        <tp:rationale>
          <p>Because avatars can be relatively large images, most protocols
            provide a way to detect whether an old avatar is still valid,
            or whether an avatar has changed, without pushing the actual
            avatar data to all clients.</p>
        </tp:rationale>

        <p>The connection manager MUST choose these tokens in a way that
          makes it highly unlikely that two different avatars with the same
          connection manager and protocol will have the same token.</p>

        <tp:rationale>
          <p>This means that clients MAY use the triple
            (<tp:type>Connection_Manager_Name</tp:type>,
            <tp:type>Protocol</tp:type>, avatar token) as a key for
            their avatar cache. For instance, an avatar for a
            telepathy-gabble Jabber contact might be stored in a file
            .../gabble/jabber/4e199b4a1c40b497a95fcd1cd896351733849949.png.</p>
        </tp:rationale>

        <p>For instance, some protocols (like XMPP) identify avatars by a
          hash of the avatar data; in this case, the hash can be used as the
          avatar token.</p>

        <p>Some protocols identify avatars by the timestamp of the last
          change to the avatar; in these protocols it would be necessary for
          the connection manager to encode both the timestamp and the
          contact's identifier into the avatar token in order to ensure
          uniqueness.</p>

        <p>This token SHOULD be kept short and reasonably suitable for use
          in a filename, but MAY contain any UTF-8 character (so clients using
          avatar tokens in filenames MUST be prepared to escape characters
          that are not valid in filenames). Connection managers for protocols
          where tokens would otherwise become inconveniently large or contain
          many unsuitable characters SHOULD hash the identifying data to
          generate the token.</p>

        <tp:rationale>
          In XMPP a recommended width is given by the protocol specification;
          in proprietary protocols, using the same avatar size as the
          proprietary client is likely to lead to the best display to other
          users.

    <tp:docstring xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
      <p>An interface for requesting avatars for contacts on a given connection,
    receiving notification when avatars are changed, and publishing your own
    avatar.</p>

    <p>Avatars are identified by a string, the <tp:type>Avatar_Token</tp:type>,
    which represents a particular avatar. Tokens MUST be chosen by the
    connection manager in such a way that the triple
    (<tp:type>Connection_Manager_Name</tp:type>, <tp:type>Protocol</tp:type>,
    <tp:type>Avatar_Token</tp:type>) uniquely identifies an avatar.
    An empty token means that an avatar has not been set for this contact, and
    a changed token implies the contact's avatar has changed, but the strings
    should otherwise be considered opaque by clients.</p>

    <p>A client should use <tp:member-ref>GetKnownAvatarTokens</tp:member-ref>
    to request the tokens for the
    avatars of all the contacts it is interested in when it connects. The
    avatars can then be requested using
    <tp:member-ref>RequestAvatars</tp:member-ref> for the contacts.  Clients
    should bind to the <tp:member-ref>AvatarUpdated</tp:member-ref> signal and
    request a new copy of
    the avatar when a contacts' avatar token changes. Clients should cache the
    token and data of each contact's avatar between connections, to avoid
    repeatedly retrieving the same avatar.</p>

    <p>To publish an avatar, a client should use
    <tp:member-ref>SetAvatar</tp:member-ref> to provide an image which meets
    the requirements returned by the
    <tp:member-ref>GetAvatarRequirements</tp:member-ref>
    function. On some protocols the avatar is stored on the server, so setting
    the avatar is persistent, but on others it is transferred via a peer to
    peer mechanism, so needs to be set every connection. Hence, on every
    connection, clients should inspect the avatar token of the connection's
    self handle using <tp:member-ref>GetKnownAvatarTokens</tp:member-ref>; if
    the self handle is not in the
    returned map, the client should re-set the avatar. If the self handle's
    avatar token is known, but the avatar has been changed locally since the
    last connection, the client should upload the new avatar; if the avatar has
    not changed locally, then the client should download the avatar from the
    server if its token differs from the that of the local avatar.</p>

    <p>To remove the published avatar on protocols which have persistent avatars,
    a client should use the <tp:member-ref>ClearAvatar</tp:member-ref> method.
    This method can safely be used even if there is no avatar for this
    connection.</p>
