Comment(by ultramancool):

 I don't think this is really a problem as if someone has access to your
 DBUS they most likely have local user access to your machine and could
 simply enable logging in your pidgin configuration, steal your OTR keys,
 use a debugger to break into the pidgin process and dump the text from it,
 etc. At the point someone has local access, all bets are off.
