+ <p>A dictionary of metadata provided by the channel
+ requester, which the handler and other clients MAY choose to
+ interpret. Currently no standard keys are defined; clients MAY
+ choose to use platform-specific keys for their own purposes, but MUST
+ ignore unknown keys and MUST cope with expected keys being
+ missing.</p>
+
+ <tp:rationale>This property might be used to pass a contact ID for a
+ telephone number shared between two contacts from the address book to
+ the call UI, so that if you try to call “Mum”, the call UI knows this
+ rather than having to guess or show “Calling Mum or Dad”. The format
+ of these contact IDs would be platform-specific, so we leave the
+ definition of the dictionary entry up to the platform in question.
+ But third-party channel requesters might not include the contact ID,
+ so the call UI has to be able to deal with it not being
+ there.</tp:rationale>
+
+ <p>The channel dispatcher will not interpret these hints: they are
+ solely for communication between cooperating clients.</p>
+
+ <tp:rationale>
+ <p>Any extra parameters that do affect the channel dispatcher should
+ be designed separately.</p>
+ </tp:rationale>
+
+ <p>This property may be set when the channel request is created, and
+ can never change. Since it is immutable, it SHOULD be included in the
+ dictionary of properties passed to <tp:dbus-ref
