I'm not going to continue beating a dead horse, but I'd like to
mention that our other client, Finch, has never had protocol icons
and, to my knowledge, has not once received a single complaint about
that.

I've also not heard any users new to Pidgin complain about the lack of
protocol icons. Every complaint I've seen has been specifically about
the *change* to remove protocol icons as a first class citizen.
