Comment (by jcourtei):

 That's not fair
 Facebook sends incorrect data and you process it as correct, this is a
 BUG, so you should fix it
 I'm a developer as well and I must always consider that I can receive
 incorrect data and avoid doing anything with it
 So Pidgin's users must accept this boring bug just because you say it's
 "Facebook's stupidity"? It's easy to put the blame on Facebook, I would
 never say to my own customers that I don't fix a bug because it's a
 mistake in another software ;)
