 My Google Contacts show up as a general useless random string of gibberish
 @public.talk.google.com

 For example 4o8r5undsa842yihq90q34tj at public.talk.google.com is actually
 John Doe.

 My other buddies show up as their user names.

 Most contacts have an alias set by them or their instant messenger
 provider. I can also rename them. I would prefer that to show over user
 names by default. Did this not use to be the default?
