Comment(by djphazer):

 You understand my point, and I can somewhat agree with you that a multi-
 select list box may not be the best/most efficient solution; it's just the
 only one that pops in my head...

 Still, I don't think it would be any more "unworkable" than other methods;
 surely populating a listbox with all buddies is equally as efficient as
 searching all buddies as you type. As a proof-of-concept, look at
 Facebook's various methods of friend-selecting (if you happen to use
 Facebook), most of which are forms of filterable multi-select list boxes.
 I have 244 friends, and it's pretty darn fast. I'd really like to see such
 a style of buddy-selection everywhere in Pidgin.
