 Replying to [comment:9 olmari]:
 > It doesn't have to be logviewer that gets the data, it can be plugin
 that retrieves updated log right after signed in to the XMPP account, and
 then ofcourse keep log updated to the server as the conversation goes on.
 This way there is no need to touch pidgins logviewer at all...

 I was just about to propuse this; downloading server-logs into the local
 logs directory.  You should just be careful that this is *not* the default
 behaviour, as this can: (1) make it painfull to log on through really slow
 connections, and (2) make it a *huge* privacy issue if I open my xmpp
 account on someone else's computer.

 Something else that need to be taken into consideration, it that pidgin
 might log something that is being logged server-side, so upon the next
 "download" of logs, we might end up with duplicate data.

 Syncing stuff is always a pain, but I sure do second the request.
 ejabberd supports XEP-0136.
