 Replying to [comment:8 ciuly]:

 message, if any, to/ the "default" one (Busy/Away).

 "busy - Busy - msg" or "busy - msg".

 I can't say I'm fond of the repetition of busy - Busy - msg, but perhaps
 busy - msg, and busy - Away - msg. Also, I'm wondering how you think the
 reverse should work. How would libpurple handle receiving a normal custom
 away message from Yahoo and one with Away prepending it?
