this might arguably be a bug. The SRV record (as per the
[http://xmpp.org/rfcs/rfc3920.html#rfc.section.14.3 rfc]) is _xmpp-client.
Yep that works (removing talk.google.com)

So there is no bug here really pidgin should suggest or change the connect
server to be blank (at least in this case) as the option is now just
causing ssl cert queries. ^^
