#16654: Pidgin will "auto-raise" window on OTR messages
-----------------------+--------------------------

     Type:  defect     |     Status:  new
Milestone:             |  Component:  pidgin (gtk)
  Version:  2.10.11    |   Keywords:  otr
-----------------------+--------------------------
 My Pidgin is set up to only show a notification icon when a new message
 arrives. When someone sends me a message using OTR though, the message
 pops up and steals the focus. This is annoying, because it interrupts me
 while doing other stuff. It also is a privacy problem: private messages
 could appear while others look at my screen.

 I'm using Ubuntu 15.04 with Awesome as window manager. The problem exists
 with the default Awesome config and OTR being the only active plugin.
 "Hide new messages" is set in the preferences and custom smileys are
 disabled in all accounts (see similar bug
 [https://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/8819 #8819]).

 The debug output does not show anything that looks useful for finding the
 problem.
