Comment (by imiganai):

 I'm not familiar with pidgin's code so I can't submit a patch (sorry), but
 handling standby should be very easy.

 1) Process the WM_POWERBROADCAST message.[[BR]]
 2) If wParam == PBT_APMSUSPEND, store the active state of the accounts and
 disconnect them.  ,,(The system allows approximately 20 seconds per
 application to process this message, and it's nicer than processing the
 PBT_QUERYSUSPEND message because -pidgin will never not grant permission
 to suspend -you'd have to handle failure cases and -you don't want Pidgin
 to disconnect and then reconnect when someone cancels a save in another
 program or something (thereby canceling the suspend)),,[[BR]]
 3) If wParam == PBT_RESUMESUSPEND, reconnect the previously active
 accounts and clear the state variable.  Note you can also process
 PBT_RESUMEAUTOMATIC for when the system is restored when the user is not
 present (for the purposes of away messages and such), and maybe do some
 clean reconnection code in PBT_RESUMECRITICAL, which is fired when Pidgin
 may not have received the PBT_SUSPEND message.[[BR]]
 4) Return TRUE, regardless of the message.

 Dunno if that inspires anyone to create a quick patch...
