#4806: Pidgin does not filter U+2028, U+2029 in buddy list

 Reporter:  gecko         |       Type:  defect
   Status:  new           |   Priority:  minor 
Component:  pidgin (gtk)  |    Version:  2.3.1 
 Keywords:                |    Pending:  0     
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Pidgin does not filter out U+2028 and U+2029 in its buddy list view's away
 message summary.  If a buddy has an away message containing either of
 these characters, it will fill vertically until it potentially takes over
 the entire list.  For example, copying and pasting this text as your
 Pidgin away message should result in your contact becoming very large on
 your friend's buddy list:

 Make
your
away
this
text

 (I know it looks either like one word without spaces (WebKit) or a phrase
 with normal spaces (Firefox), but it copies out correctly on my systems.)
