 It would be nice to have Pidgin handle the ever-annoying AOL System Msg
 multiple sign-on alert in some sort of graceful (quieter) way.  I'm
 attaching a small mock-up image I put together showing how I think this
 could be done, taking after how the interface presents
 authentication/connection errors.

 I have seen this addressed similarly in ApolloIM, a libpurple client for
 the iPhone/iPod Touch, in which the multiple sign-on notice is displayed
 within a simple alert dialog rather than by creating a new conversation
 window.

 It's not the most important issue on the table right now, but I believe
 such a feature would be a welcome improvement.  Let me know what you guys
 think.
