[wish] integrated full featured matrix client

Hello.

I'm triggered by the word 'integrated' :-). I work on an integrated solution but it is a long hard road with issues on all sides — (IMO) there is no good Qt-based library and the integration framework (Telepathy) is mostly stagnating.

There is a PoC of an integrated libQMatrixClient-based client that integrates into jolla-contacts and jolla-messages, but it supports only 1-1 text chat. It is not possible to get any kind of "integrated" and "full featured" client without a significant investment. :-( I work on Telepathy for years and my best hope is to get 0.1.0 release of the rudimentary matrix client this summer. The most optimistic plan is to implement group chat support before the winter but it is a lot of work (mostly on low-level opensource components).

Replace the word "integrated" with "native" to make the wish feasible.

Hello! Talking about native version: take a look at @r0kk3rz version, I've contributed a bit to his project too. He didn't publish it to Openrepos yet, but have Mer Project OBS builds. You are definitely not alone with integrated IM solutions wishes, I'm trying to help @Kaffeine with Telepathy-based project at my free time too. While it's true we are limited with resources now, It makes sense to combine our efforts :)

cy8aer, are you still working on Bluepill matrix client? Is there any chance you could put it on openrepos? Building it with SDK is way beyond me. I can contribute moral support (money!) and I'm sure others would too, it's a shame we don't have a native client on SF. TIA
