Comment (by deryni):
I will grant that it is 'reasonably' safe to assume that if a buddy that
had previously been in GroupA is now in GroupB that the move was
intentional and that we can drop the local copy of GroupA, I am not at all
willing to grant that assuming the utter deletion was correct is the
appropriate thing to do. That being said I see no reason why we should
assume either, since as you commented, the buddy list is the "user's most
valuable piece of information" and as such we should really just get the
out-of-sync dialog and use that for all conflict resolution, with the
ability to set things like "always trust the server" or "always trust the
local list" we can even default the dialog to having selected "trust the
server".
