If Ubuntu is going to switch to Thunderbird as the default mail client
in Oneiric, I think we either need to remove the Online Accounts
capplet, or include the necessary infrastructure to allow Thunderbird to
link to Google contacts and calendars. Otherwise, it just appears broken
when a user adds their Google Account information and nothing happens in
Thunderbird.

Also, the VoIP and Messaging Accounts capplet should be removed or
folded into the Online Accounts capplet, IMHO.

Title:
  Online Accounts capplet has no accounts listed

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  As you can see in the attached screenshot, there are no accounts
  listed in the Online Accounts part of the GNOME Control Center shipped
  in Oneiric. I currently have a number of Chat and Gwibber accounts set
  up and working well, so those accounts should be visible. When I try
  to add an account by clicking the + button it only shows Google as a
  provider.
