Comment (by deryni):

 Nrbelex: Yes, something like that would be possible, but without a
 compelling reason to need that information there it is just needless
 clutter. And as lscheire pointed out your specific case is handled better
 by the account error dialogs/buttons than by having to notice that you
 don't see any of one type of icon. Plus, with lots of accounts and lots of
 buddies you could easily not have a specific protocols icon on screen and
 still be connected, not to mention have few enough buddies on one
 account/protocol such that they are all offline at the same time. Both of
 which would look the same and yet mean very different things.
