What App for video-chats ?

 

In the original ubuntu-touch videos we saw a demo of video-chat and then side-stage.            X          
I assume this video app is not real.
I also don't believe we will get Skype or google talk plugin any time soon.
So how about getting alternatives on board or developing their own solution?
one option might be porting open source "Jitsi": http://xmpp.org/2013/03/jitsi-2-0-now-released/
an advantage is that it already has desktop clients and is multi-protocol. Maybe even a QML client can be built.
Also could get the ReelPortal devs interested early: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3sBDeSE87F0
Anyway I Think the "chats" should be part of the core experience, like that of the latest Blackberries: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpToSYL9bT4
