 This is coming from very old gaim days.

 Apparently buddy names in conversation window, that is my own name and my
 conversation partner's name are ''hardcoded'' (i'm blue, my partner is
 red).

 I've been told so by someone in the old gaim team and it seems pidgin is
 continuing  this legacy.

 GTK+ theme control plugin has no effect here (and it only has the ability
 to change font face, not color).

 Prefs window, conversation tab has nothing regarding this.
 Also, assuming a different GTK theme, let's say one with a darker
 background will create serious readability problems.
