Comment (by datallah):
It isn't going to be possible to create several accounts with the same
protocol, screenname and host because that is what libpurple uses as the
key to identify an account internally - wouldn't be able to differentiate
two accounts with the same values. This is unlikely to change unless
there is a compelling reason to do so. I also think that it isn't the
right way to accomplish what you're describing.
There already is a pretty simple workflow to do what you want to do -
simply change the proxy settings when you get to a different location.
Alternatively, a relatively simple plugin could be written to allow you to
create "Settings Profiles" that could be selected to apply various groups
of settings (such as proxy).
