present custom and protocol emoticons/smileys to the chat client
Submitted by Nicolò Chieffo

Description
In MSN you can associate a custom smiley/emoticon to a text. For instance you can setup that when you write (linux) a penguin is shown instead of the text. MSN also provides a default set of additional emoticons.
butterfly should automatically parse the text and whenever it finds a reference to a protocol or custom similey it should remove the text and insert the corresponding image, and then send everything to the chat client.
Does telepathy handle the possibility to send text + images to the client?
