Apparently the developer console is going away. Or at least it's not part of
the latest joyride builds. So you can't collect your info anymore this way.

Anyway  The big issue for me is that once the ipv4 information is in a
shipped release we're somewhat doomed to keep it in...  But what your actually
saying is that you want a graphical way to collect this information, not
specifically that it has to be part of the information salut (or even
telepathy) has..

Turning avahi-discover into an XO app, should be reasonably straight forward
(it's a trivial application, using pygtk already). And it has all the
information you need (and some more). Would that be a solution for your
problem ?
