I don't remember where the discussion happened, but the issue was that
we were trying to model the behavior of the status icon.  So we're
calling the same function as the status icon.  It seems non-ideal as the
code to detect if the window is visible in Pidgin seems to not detect
that case very well.

So, I don't think for Jaunty, it makes sense to change this.  But, we're
discussing it with regards to the MessageingMenu spec on the Ubuntu wiki
so that all applications have the same behavior, which is the most
important thing.

indicator-applet fails to bring pidgin to foreground

Status in “indicator-applet” source package in Ubuntu: Invalid
Status in “pidgin” source package in Ubuntu: Confirmed

Bug description:
Binary package hint: indicator-applet

The indicator-applet cannot bring pidgin to the front sometimes
when another program is focused. I have created a capture video to explain it.
First you see that the applet can bring up pidgin fine.
But when I open a new tab in opera and then click the applet the
contact list of pidgin is not opened in the foreground. But you can see
it appear in the bar at the bottom.
