Comment (by apelete):

 Since 2.4.2 conversation window is now a pain for people who are using
 tabbed conversations.
 I always open new conversation in the same window in a new tab. I used to
 have my buddy list window on the left side of my screen, and the conv
 window sticking right next to it, that way I can have all my chat/im
 conversations and my buddy list windows visible on the screen.
 With 2.4.2 and conv window placement managed by the Window Manager only,
 the conv window always appear on top of the buddy list on the left of the
 screen too.
 I think the solution would be to have an option to let pidgin remember the
 placement of the conversation window or not.
