 Does pidgin/libpurple support xep-0184 (Message Receipts)? It would be
 nice to have, that should help the user to understand when the message is
 not delivered. Right now if my network connection fails, my buddies
 continue to see me as online, they can send me messages (which I obviously
 do not receive). When I'm back online, those messages are not delivered
 either. I have tested that with google talk account, and to be honest I
 can see those 'lost' messages in Gmail history, but that's a different
 matter. The problem is that when a person is unexpectedly disconnected,
 his buddies don't know that, and they can't tell if the messages were
 delivered.

 Bottom line: message receipts need to be implemented.
