Comment (by Jaywalker):

 The attachment simply changes the session->account->username (which is
 their login name or email address) to their session->username. It backs up
 their "loginname" to session->loginname. When the session ends, it resets
 their session->account->username to session->loginname to avoid errors the
 next time around.

 Potential Error:
 I dont know that msim_session_destroy() gets called EVERY time the plugin
 ends, even on a crash of pidgin. If this isnt the case, we need to have
 the function that always gets called (perhaps the plugin's destroy
 function?) reset the account's username to the login name.
