#14766: AIM URI handler - Prompt for AIM ScreenName to handle "action"

In Pidgin 2.10.0, if the AIM URI handler is registered by Pidgin and
you're logged into multiple AIM accounts all actions are performed for the
higher-listed AIM account listed under "Manage Accounts".
Assume the AIM URI handler (aim://) is registered for use with Pidgin.
If a user has multiple AIM accounts handled by Pidgin (e.g., AIMUser1 &
AIMUser2) and both the accounts are logged-in, if a link is clicked that
utilizes the AIM URI handler, the "action" of the link defaults to being
performed by the AIM account that is listed higher-up under the "Manage
Accounts" dialog.
Sample AIM URI handler-specific links:
1) aim:goim?screenname=testuser&message=hello+world! (action= pop-up IM
window)
2) aim:gochat?roomname=chat&exchange=4 (action= auto-enter chatroom)
If AIMUser1 is listed higher-up (closer to top-most) above AIMUser2 under
"Manage Accounts", those sample links will be performed by AIMUser1.
Case 1) AIMUser1 will pop-up a window to "testuser" with the message
"hello world!".
Case 2) AIMUser1 will auto-enter the chatroom "chat" (exchange 4).
Likewise, if AIMUser2 is listed high-up (closer to top-most) than AIMUser1
under "Manage Accounts", the aforementioned cases will be performed by
AIMUser2.
What I'd like to see would be after clicking an aim:// link with any of
those actions, a dialog prompting me on which AIM account I would like the
action to be handled by if I have more than one AIM account logged-in.
