Guess this is more of a feature request than a bug report, but since I
began using Pidgin, people message me all the time, but with the window
minimized or behind other windows, I never receive any notification of new
incoming messages. Even with the flash option on, if I have several
buddies open in tabs, there is no obvious notification that I have a new
message. As a former Trillian user, I was very used to new messages
causing the Windows taskbar icon to flash. It would be REALLY helpful for
Pidgin to implement something like this, either/or update the taskbar with
the number of new messages. The 'play a sound' on incoming messages
option is not viable for use in a work environment. I need a visible
indicator. By the way, your captcha is a little TOO good. I've tried TEN
times, and it keeps failing me. I'm HUMAN, and I can't make out what the
frell it's saying.
