Comment:

 Ok, the rough consensus among Pidgin developers who have actually spoken
 with me about this is the following:
  * '''''If''''' we want to support this before 3.0.0, it will be
 implemented as tagging, whereby the display is `(timestamp) Group Name:
 P4-Context Value: message`.
  * A ''proper'' solution for 3.0.0 will be to allow prpls to include
 "tagging" information when passing messages to the core.  This allows us
 to support the P4-Context header on MSN as well as support showing the
 thread stuff XMPP has.  The UI will be able to decide how to handle this
 extra information, including ignoring it if the UI so chooses or allowing
 themes to handle or ignore it.

 As such, I am rejecting all the patches on this ticket.
