 a lot of people post URL links in their personal messages in Gtalk and
 MSN. currently one would have to go to Get Info and wait for it to load
 (it takes a while to load) before clicking the link

 it would be a good feature to have pidgin parse a http:// or a www string
 as a link from the IM window itself.

 of course there is the security issue of people clicking random links
 people have posted, so ideally there should be a setting to turn off this
 feature. it should be off by default.
