 I have some number "n" AIM accounts, and my buddy Joe is added under all
 of them.  His name shows up n times on my buddy list instead of only once!

 I've been using another IM program to handle my accounts, but I want to
 switch to pidgin.  However, I can't have all 100 of my buddies showing up
 "n" times.  Can you fix this bug - possibly via the same principle as
 Trillian where the first time you IM them it asks what account you want to
 use and whether or not it should be the default, and it allows you to use
 a different account temporarily by right clicking on their user name and
 selecting another account.  you can also reset the default so that you get
 prompted the next time you IM them.

 Thanks
 Overkill
