Have you tried the latest release that came out today? It ships with
James' Pidgin support.

The standalone gimmie-dock has issues with growing.  There's not
really a good solution that I have come up with yet.  Possibly scaling
all the icons down to make space instead of growing the panel could
alleviate the side-effects, but the problem is still present.

Another option is to break out the sections into the screen corners,
but this has implications since it's such a long distance from one
corner to the next, and it effectively steals a lot of space from
application windows.

One idea I have for this is to make the browsing window a singleton
tabbed-window, so the cost at looking for an object in a separate
section is lessened.  Additionally, a single window might mean we can
remove the labeled buttons that currently show after a delay.  This is
done currently to avoid interacting poorly with maximized windows (to
answer your second question ;-)

But, I mostly run the gimmie-applet version these days anyway, which
doesn't have a live object list.  I'm interested to see if people are
still using the standalone gimmie-dock.  Do people still run it?
