We don't share the UI (lp:ubuntu-system-settings-online-accounts) and a
couple of other projects (lp:account-plugins, lp:signon-ui). I won't
stand against a switch to cmake, but now the timing is not good, as
there's a lot of development with libraries, pkg-config files and dbus
interfaces, so I'd rather wait until I've done the big part of the job.

End of January could be a good time.
