Comment(by pterjan):

 Hello

 I'm the author of the patch which was a workaround of a metacity patch
 that made pidgin quite unusable

 http://fasmz.org/~pterjan/blog/?date=20081005

 Without this patch on pidgin, clicking on the tray icon when it's flashing
 did just make the window flash in the taskbar when the window was on
 another desktop instead of presenting it. With this ugly patch it gets
 hidden and then showed again so it moves to current desktop.

 This is really ugly but I didn't find better simple solution at that time.
 I should look now if there is something better available.
