 None. Disabling all plugins and then restarting Pidgin will still lead to
 the same problem for the above steps. Note that you must not first select
 the window (that was not clear). Leave the window minimised, and right-
 click the taskbar button and select Close. Nothing happens. The only way
 to even see the window now is to right-click the taskbar button and select
 Restore.

 Right-click, close on the taskbar button of a minimised conversation
 window does normally work. By forcing the window to open minimised,
 something is being left broken in the window state. If you do bring the
 window up, though, it is made better and will close correctly later. It's
 just that one little point where it's not yet been seen.

 It's not a major problem or even a minor one, but I just wonder if it has
 any connection to other occasions where the same symptoms occur, of the
 event loop ceasing to process most events.
