Comment:

 Correct. Pidgin does not support the Invisible status on XMPP (and thus on
 Google Talk) and so when you tell pidgin to switch from Offline to
 Invisible pidgin leaves the Google Talk account offline because it cannot
 make it Invisible.

 This is actually the less problematic of these problems as I believe the
 same thing happens when switching from Available to Invisible only the
 Google Talk account remains Available (which is even more decidedly not
 what the user likely wants).

 That being said there isn't really a good solution to this in the general
 case since there aren't useful fallback statuses that could be used (other
 than Available or Offline).
