I think instead of trying to replace Gwibber, we should take a good
hard
look at their (Ubuntu's) desktop-couch vision, and really see if it is
something we want to leverage (as they are putting a lot of resources
into it). If not, we should patch this requirement out of Gwibber,
because afaik, it isn't using the couchdb for anything at the moment.
AIUI, it's using it as its storage backend (for downloaded feed
data, feed info, etc.). So it's not something that can really be
patched out as-is.
