Comment (by pgunn):

 It would be nice to have a plugin that would change the icons
 appropriately, so that users who want it could enable it would cluttering
 the baseline code. I personally think it'd be handy because although
 there's an effort to abstract protocol differences away, as a user I often
 run into protocol-specific features - if, for instance, file transfer is
 stable for AIM but not so stable for Yahoo and unavailable for IRC, it can
 be handy to have that hint available at a moment's notice. Also, from a
 psychological point of view, any consistent visual cues that distinguish
 users from each other, even if they're not intrinsically meaningful, speed
 the process of visual distinction.
