#14339: Reset text formatting after the message is sent

 Pidgin allows to change the font of the message. That's a good thing, of
 course. But changes are preserved after the message is sent.

 The most usual case: a text copy-pasted from browser or another window
 with its own formatting sets different font face and color. And all the
 other messages are sent with that formatting. This is usually not a good
 idea in MUC (multi-user conferences). The worst thing is that I may not
 even notice that my messages have a custom color if new color is same as
 my default color. But users with different color scheme WILL see the
 difference.

 I have hit this problem many times (have to manually reset formatting
 often "just in case"). And I know several users who did that as well.

 Suggestion: add an interface option that resets font settings to default
 after sending the message. I also suggest to make this option on by
 default. The option is required for backward compatibility, so that users,
 who want their formatting preserved, were able to turn this option off.
