 I'm nearly shure that this has been discussed before, but I could not find
 a ticket:

 Let's assume i have a contact "SomeGuy". This guy has two accounts: an ICQ
 account which has the nick "GuyICQ" and an MSN account with the nick
 "GuyMSN". If I now open a conversation with SomeGuy, I would expect Pidgin
 to set the title of the corresponding tab (and the window title, if the
 tab is active) to "SomeGuy", but instead it will be "GuyMSN" or "GuyICQ".

 This is a bit confusing, since "the goal is to hide protocols from the
 user as much as possible" (quoted from the DesignGuidelines). It's a
 little bit unnerving because you (at least I) expect something different
 than what you get.
