Comment(by deryni):

 The enabled account list is visible from the Accounts menu.

 In the simple case for a global status and buddy icon, both of those are
 visible from the status selector area. I'll grant that this doesn't
 include display names (like the MSN Friendly Name) at the moment and that
 it doesn't cover the complex cases (which this sort of display would).

 The confusion about the accounts group is that it doesn't function like a
 buddy list group, you wouldn't be allowed to add/remove entries from it,
 etc. I'd argue in that group double-clicking should do nothing, since
 doing anything other than opening a conversation window would be decidedly
 wrong and opening a conversation window would be even more confusing in
 what the usage is supposed to be for the group/the entries.

 If you add yourself to your buddy list the default action needs to be
 identical to non-self buddies, in the accounts group that requirement can
 be relaxed (and as indicated I think it should be).
