Comment(by deryni):

 A plugin for this could be written in perl or tcl as well as C if that is
 of any help. It could potentially even be an external dbus script though
 that is slightly less well suited to the task.

 The plugin would need to connect to the message sending signals, check the
 current status setting in pidgin and if the current status is an away
 status set an available status instead.

 The purple-remote python dbus script has commands for getting the current
 status and for setting the current status those can either be used as-is
 (if the dbus route is taken) or simply cribbed for the proper function
 calls (if the normal plugin route is taken).
