Comment (by rekkanoryo):
As has already been mentioned in this ticket, Pidgin does not request
focus for its windows; it simply creates them. If new windows are
"stealing" focus, it is a deficiency in your window manager. Windows'
(complete lack of) window management falls into the deficient category.
For X11 applications, it is not the application's responsibility to manage
its own windows; this is the entire point of a window manager existing. I
realize that on Windows applications are expected to manage their own
windows, but I don't see the point of implementing a ton of Windows-
specific hacks when we already don't/won't hack around the stupid X11
window managers.
