#4283: Yahoo and MSN account alias delete behavior
------------------------------------------+---------------------------------

   Status:  new                           |   Priority:  minor 
Component:  libpurple                     |    Version:  2.3.0 
 Keywords:  yahoo MSN buddy alias delete  |    Pending:  0     
------------------------------------------+---------------------------------
 In AIM or Gtalk, if I try to remove the alias on a buddy by right clicking
 the buddy on an expanded contact, selecting "Alias...", and deleting all
 of the text and pressing enter, the alias is removed (as expected) and the
 original buddy name is shown.

 If I try to do this procedure with a Yahoo or MSN account, the alias is
 not removed.. instead after pressing enter after entering a blank alias
 the previous alias is used.

 I believe the intended behavior for all account types should be the same,
 and there definitely should be a way to remove the alias (entering a blank
 alias is fine for this, I believe).  I've observed this 'buggy' behavior
 on Yahoo and MSN but it may exist on other accounts as well (with the
 exception of AIM and gtalk).
