#9135: Control+L has different behavior in Buddy List vs. Conversation window
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  sgarrity      |     Owner:       
     Type:  defect        |    Status:  new  
Component:  pidgin (gtk)  |   Version:  2.5.5
 Keywords:                |  
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Control+L opens a View User Log window when in the buddy list window.
 However, when in a conversation window, instead of doing the same (but for
 that particular buddy), it clears the history in the current chat window.

 The same keyboard shortcut doesn't always have to do the same thing in
 different contexts, however these situations are similar and the behavior
 is almost the opposite of the desired effect (I often *clear* the log when
 I want to *view* the log).

 Suggestion: make Control+L view the log for the current users when in the
 conversation view and create a new shortcut for clearing the log
 (Control+Backspace?). Cheers.
