#10682: Find users in collapsed lists

 I use pidgin in a way to where I have groups based on geographic location.
 Then if I need to talk to someone in say, Dublin, I can open that list.
 Generally I have all sites collapsed except for my local site, as I talk
 to these people frequently.  This is pretty much the only way I can manage
 my contacts as I have over 300 of them.  We use IM a LOT at work.  It's
 Google Talk for the protocol for those curious.

 The problem with this is that when I do a Ctrl-F to find a contact, it
 will not search collapsed groups, nor offline contacts.  Both are helpful
 if I'm trying to get in contact with someone in a hurry.

 Just as an FYI I'm using Pidgin 2.6.2 on Ubuntu 9.10, so if there is
 currently a plugin for this or I need to install XYZ package, please let
 me know.  Otherwise just assume that this is a feature request.
