unreasonable and therefore unacceptable complexity to the code, not to
anything the user sees.
If that's the case, then why did you previously say:
"It doesn't matter how hard it is to implement--we've made it clear we
have no intention of doing so, and I'll go on the record now saying if
anyone writes a patch to make it happen, it will be rejected. We do not
want such a feature in Pidgin."
That implies this has nothing to do with complexity, but rather that
you've made a personal decision you don't want the feature, and hence are
closed-minded towards the possibility that anybody else might want it.
That's your right, but when users are told their needs and opinions are a
secondary consideration, that's a pretty good impetus to go elsewhere.
