Comment:

 Just to update you on this, I would like to get this in Pidgin 2.6.0, but
 I need to review the code, and do some extra QA and testing.  I have a few
 thoughts for tweaks in my head, particularly setting the urgent hint on
 this window when it has an item added to it, and sensitizing buttons
 appropriately.  I believe I should be able to do the scroll-to-target and

 Also, now that the patch honors the custom message, it no longer tells you
 why the message occurred, which I think needs to be resolved.

 I don't see any reason (based on the size of the dialog) that there's a
 problem with more than 3 buttons. 5 should fit comfortably, though that's
 probably more than are needed.

 Also, there's an obvious crash for a pounce that is deleted or goes away
 between appearing and clicking the Edit button.

 Any such improvements are welcome while I find some free time and mull
 stuff in my head. :)
