#953: Contact with multiple accounts not always shown as logged in

 I have a number of contacts on multiple networks and have collected them
 into a single alias in each case. It appears that if a contact is not
 logged in on the network that is first in the list (in the order shown
 when "expanded"), even if they are logged into one of the other networks,
 they don't show up as logged in.

 The group heading does consider them as logged in (i.e. it shows something
 like 1/3, if they are the only contact connected of the three in that
 group and the group is collapsed). Also, if I show offline buddies and
 then expand (or mouse-over) the contact, I can see that one of the
 accounts is online.

 So it seems that only the top-level alias for the buddy is not getting the
 message that he/she really is logged in; all the information is present at
 the lower levels.

 (Of course, as soon as I go to file this ticket, the example I had went
 away as my buddy logged into all of his networks. I'll try to collect a
 screenshot next time it happens if that would be useful. This seems to be
 100% repeatable, though. I've seen it multiple times with multiple
 buddies.)
