#11095: Too many login windows at startup
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  legion1978    |     Owner:  rekkanoryo
     Type:  defect        |    Status:  new       
Component:  unclassified  |   Version:  2.6.3     
 Keywords:  login window  |  
--------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
 At startup (both linux/windows), login window(s) move from one position to
 another, making the process very annoying and difficult. Specially if I
 have more than 5 accounts.

 This comes from the fact that I don't want Pidgin to save my password for
 every account, since its a shared computer, so I must fill in the password
 every time I wish to login. Again, one or two accounts would be easy, more
 than 5 its annoying. Besides, since the login windows move around the
 screen (attempting to reconnect I believe) I often end up writing down the
 password in the wrong box (or document if I lose focus).
 Why dont make a single password protected login box? That way Pidgin can
 be set to remember passwords and still be secure to share computer.

 [Enhancement]
 This might imply a user-based system, where each user has its own startup
 user password/set of accounts, again, for the sake of security and
 privacy. For example, if Im at work, I might  want to "activate" a
 different set of accounts, all corporate, without disturbing my
 preferences/accounts/buddies configuration back at home.
