#8103: Message text selected in "account has disconnected" dialog
-------------------+--------------------------------------------------------
Reporter:  jerith  |        Type:  defect      
  Status:  new     |   Component:  pidgin (gtk)
 Version:  2.5.2   |    Keywords:              
-------------------+--------------------------------------------------------
 When an account disconnects (usually because of a bad network connection),
 the pidgin_mini_dialog at the bottom of the buddy lists is displayed with
 the text selected.

 This means that displaying the dialog causes the message text to be dumped
 into the X select buffer, overwriting whatever is already in there and
 breaking copy/paste behaviour in X.

 I am unfamiliar with both GTK and pidgin's code, but I strongly suspect
 the problem is the one discussed in the mailing list thread at
 http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-app-devel-
 list/2007-October/msg00144.html
