<p>Emitted when the unique identifier of a contact on the server
changes.</p>
<p>Any channels associated with the contact's original handle will
continue to be to that handle, and so are no longer useful (unless
the contact renames back, or another contact connects with that
unique ID). Clients may open a similar channel associated with the
new handle to continue communicating with the contact.</p>
<p>For example, if a GUI client associates text
channels with chat windows, it should detach the old channel
from the chat window, closing it, and associate a channel to the
new handle with the same window.</p>
<p>If the contact's old handle is in any of the member lists of
a channel which has the groups interface, it will be removed from
the channel and the new handle will be added. The resulting
<tp:dbus-ref
namespace="org.freedesktop.Telepathy.Channel.Interface.Group">MembersChanged</tp:dbus-ref>
signal must be emitted <em>after</em> the
<tp:member-ref>Renamed</tp:member-ref> signal; the reason should be
RENAMED.
</p>
<p>The handles may be either general-purpose or channel-specific.
If the original handle is general-purpose, the new handle must be
general-purpose; if the original handle is channel-specific, the
new handle must be channel-specific in the same channel.

<tp:docstring>
An interface on connections to support protocols where the unique
identifiers of contacts can change. Because handles are immutable,
this is represented by a pair of handles, that representing the
old name, and that representing the new one.
