The general idea is that once you have combined two or more buddies into
a contact, you will not need to expand the contact from that point on.
For the purposes of simply creating a contact, dragging and hovering
over another buddy for a short time will expand it long enough to drop
the dragged buddy into it.

Pidgin will select the most available buddy, picking the higher one if
there is a tie.
