Bug Description

(wishlist, luna+1, etc.)

It would be a nice addition to provide an option to retrieve the user photo from its favourite social network. Ideally it would be just a box to tick "use my (socialnetwork) profile picture" and linked to a plug replicating gnome-online-accounts. Make it auto-update and you have it complete.

That would be a nice feature to have, i don't think this is a switchboard specific bug though

Shouldn't this be assigned to some pantheon-plugs meta project?

The blueprint is good but this bug needs technical info/opinions about how and why it would be done for Switchboard specifically.
