Comment:

 The input area grows to accomodate the extra lines of input, yes. I like
 to make my IM window very small, to economize space. And when I have the
 window up, I make the input field the height of one line of text. (Very
 small). When I type, the input area grows larger (as designed), but it
 doesnt return to normal, it stays larger and makes my chat window large. I
 have to resize it after every conversation.

 I think it would be great if there was an option to shut this feature off,
 and just use scroll bars... cause this has caused me so much hassle. I
 have switched back and forth from Pidgin and Kopete, but I really like
 Pidgin. I would like this to be resolved so my frustrations dont cause me
 to find something better (cause frankly there is not).
