Comment(by VuDu):

 Another disappointing move by the Pidgin devs that, once again, show how
 few they care about MSN users.
 You hide behind arguments like "we want to do it the right way" or "it's
 not on the protocol" but the reality you're showing to the users is that
 you keep avoiding and delaying anything that is MSN-feature related and
 requires the least amount of effort.
 Even simple things like this one, that would be easily patched and
 milestoned to "implement properly" for some later version are postponed.

 I'm not sure about the real numbers, but I think MSN is the most used IM
 protocol, at least in Europe. The Wikipedia article (
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usage_share_of_instant_messaging_clients )
 gets the info from ars technica, that on April 2006 (
 http://arstechnica.com/microsoft/news/2006/04/3557.ars ) says that MSN has
 61% usage worldwide and is even with AOL in the US.

 This was opened almost 2 years ago and was just postponed. The msgplus
 color tags is on the same track. This is another disappoint move from the
 pidgin devs, to say the least.
