If I happen to already have the person in my contact list, I can open the list and click on the name to authorize. But most of the time people will *not* already have the person in there. I remember that in previous version of Ubuntu, a request would create an entry in the Messaging Menu, which would then show a dialog box when you clicked on it. Not sure if it was the best solution, but at least it was something. I don't know if this was disabled or broke.
