 Im a longtime user of Pidgin, but the one thing so far that I liked better
 on AIM, was that when you set up an away message, it popped up a separate
 box with your away message, and kept messages sent to you in a box.

 In Pidgin, its TOO EASY to set away messages.. I am ALWAYS forgetting they
 are up, dont update them, or whatnot, simply because they're out of the
 way. Id like an option (plugin) to enable the popup box when you set an
 away message, so it is something that reminds you to come back from away
 when you come back to the computer. Aim had this right I think, because as
 it is with pidgin right now, it's too easy to forget to clear a message.
 Similar to the image on this webpage. It isnt mine, but its what i want :)
