Comment(by deryni):

 pidgin does auto-fill a default conference server when the server provides
 one, Google Talk does not (not a normal one at least). jabber.org has a
 public conference server (Tools->Room List will let you see the rooms and
 join them).

 I don't know whether drag and drop to invite works, but that's a separate
 issue entirely.

 The generic "conflict" issue is different, if you try to join a room
 manually with the same name as someone else in the room you will get a
 conflict. In the normal case all that means is you need to pick a
 different name when you try again. Your case is special in that we don't
 let you pick a name.

 Have you tried this with the official Google Talk client or the gmail web
 client? Does it work there? Do you get to pick a name? Does one of you get
 a different name automatically? Does something else happen?
