Comment(by deryni):
Alt-F4 is not a pidgin binding and it therefore is not our place to mess
with it (which includes prevention).
Personally, I believe that a non-confirmed quit binding is, in general,
just a bad idea and should not (by default) exist in any application. I
think a confirmed quit binding is also a bad and shouldn't exist by
default, but I can at least understand that slightly better. I also happen
to think more applications should let you modify their bindings more
easily, but that's another matter entirely.
That being said I would argue, with what I imagine is virtual certainty,
that people simply do *not* expect to be able to quit the application from
random windows (imagine if you could quit an application from every dialog
box).
Adding an item to the More menu is simple (though as I noticed the other
day also adds to the buddy list right-click menu and lacks a way to detect
in which context the menu is being displayed), adding a command is also
rather simple. If you need help with either of those feel free to join the
#pidgin irc channel or devel at conference.pidgin.im XMPP muc room.
