 When a new IM arrives in a conversation tab, Pidgin can flash the taskbar
 button and update its system tray icon accordingly. On Win32, flashing
 works on IRC channels as well with the Windows Pidgin Options plugin (this
 is a bit mysterious, since without this plugin, Pidgin can do flashing
 already - but this is a side issue).

 I think a useful enhancement would be to allow the user to set
 flashing/systray notification individually per conversation/chat tab. A
 common use case is being on multiple IRC channels of different importance.
 For the less important channels, the user may wish to check if anything
 happened once in a while, or be notified when their nickname is mentioned.
 For important channels, the user may wish instant notification.
