 Sorry, some other stuff came up. I've attached the updated patch.

 I think this is a cleaner solution because it makes the `sending-im-msg`
 have the same semantics for all protocols: it is prefixed with `/me ` when
 it is an action. This makes it possible for plugins to do something to
 turn it into a non-action: if the result from the signal is a string that
 doesn't start with `/me `, it is sent as a normal message, otherwise it is
 is sent as an action.

 This means that Pidgin patched with this patch should always encrypt
 actions as "/me does something", which means they also show up correctly
 in Pidgin (without patching Pidgin-OTR).
