Comment (by deryni):

 It would certainly be possible for pidgin to attempt to remember the
 people you hit Unsubscribe for, but that would make it basically
 impossible to manage your buddy list from multiple locations. Think about
 what happens if you unsubscribe on machine A and then later resubscribe on
 machine B, machine A will still have the buddy in the 'do not display'
 list. Not to mention this being horrible overhead for something the
 protocols supports just fine and which is either a Google Talk bug, or
 something which "is not a bug, it is a feature".
