 Currently if you have a jabber-setup with a shared roster on server side,
 pidgin displayes only the JabberID after first login. You have to load
 each user's vCard manually to switch to display name from vCard.

 There are already some tickets regarding this issue especially for "adding
 users from search". But it is much more annoying if you have a big list
 from a shared roaster and each client has to click through the whole list
 to see the real names.

 So it would be great, if the vCard of all users is loaded immediately
 after loading the roster after login. And if the vCard is loaded
 immediately after adding a new user, the problem with "adding users from
 search" is also fixed.

 Great thanks!
