guess i gotta change my mind on this!
Presence is not only relevant to the web, to IM, but also to the local system.

e.g.:
Once i'm set to busy, the local system should adapt its notification behaviour to that.

Windicator example:
i'm watching a movie in totem, at some point i decide to go "busy", so that nothing will pop-up in my face while enjoying the movie, so i touch the Totem Presence Windicator to make me "busy".

Presence control belongs independent of IM.
IM can be a client of Presence ( Me Menu ), but it should not be able to render Presence controls inactive..

The concept of "Me" extends beyond IM and twitter.
