Comment:

 The problem with a patch like this is that it isn't what 'raise' means. If
 you want what GTK+ calls 'present' there's a different function for that
 (which has had its own issues because window manager focus policies are
 complicated beasts) purple_conversation_present. But even more
 fundamentally than that the issue is that different people have different
 desires for what should and shouldn't happen on different events. The
 notify plugin could probably stand a patch to add a 'Present' method, but
 it doesn't really need it because the Urgent option can be used and your
 wm should be able to handle that in whatever way that you want.
