 Hello,

 When I try to use the -l/--login command line flags, I get either an
 autoconnection to the first account or the account chooser.

 Here are my unsuccessful attempt to use this command line flag:
 $ pidgin --login gild... at jabber.org,gild... at gmail.com
 -> first account

 $ pidgin "--login=gild... at jabber.org/At home,gild... at gmail.com/At home"
 -> account chooser

 $ pidgin "--login=gild... at jabber.org/At home,gild... at gmail.com/At home"
 -> account chooser

 $ pidgin --login='gild... at jabber.org/At home','gild... at gmail.com/At home'
 -> account chooser

 $ pidgin -l 'gild... at jabber.org/At home' -l 'gild... at gmail.com/At home'
 -> first account

 $ pidgin -l 'gild... at gmail.com/At home'
 -> first account

 $ pidgin --login='gild... at gmail.com/At home'
 -> account chooser

 $ pidgin "--login=gild... at gmail.com/At home"
 -> account chooser

 $ pidgin -lgild... at gmail.com
 -> account chooser

 Either I don't understand the meaning of this flag or it doesn't work.
 Please clarify this flag or remove it.pidgin
