/*
	A generic connector framework for instant messaging protocols.

	Model:

	- A connector represents a connection to an outgoing service (IRC, XMPP, etc)
	  It satisfies a generic interface representing the actions that can be called
	  (send messages, join room, etc)

	- A handler represents a consumer of events happening on a connection
	  It satisfies a generic interface representing the events that can happend
	  (message received, rooms autojoined, etc)

	- A connector implements a given protocol that has an identifier
	  Each protocol identifier determines a namespace for user identifiers
	  and room identifiers which are globally unique for all connections using
	  this protocol.
	  For instance, a user can have two IRC conections to different servers.
	  Internally used user names and room identifiers must contain
	  the server name to be able to differentiate.
