 Pidgin's logs currently don't tell the difference between a newline on
 protocols that support it (shift-enter by default, i think) and a new
 message. As a result, a pasted message on a newline looks exactly like a
 real message. So, in the logs, this:

    Me: Hey, Jim, what's up?
    Jim: This is really Me, but I hit shift-enter to make it look like it's
 from Jim!

 looks like Jim really said it. I suggested using XML for logging in
 #pidgin, but deryni came up with a simpler solution, which is to indent
 newlines. Then it would look like this:

    Me: Hey, Jim, what's up?
      Jim: This is really Me, and you can see it because it's indented!
