You want IRC to show a literal "/me" to the other person, and not

What if, when the user types "/me action", the prpl-irc plugin passes
"/me action" to the pidgin-otr plugin, and sends the result as a
PRIVMSG. Then the receiving prpl-irc plugin, when it decrypts and
*receives* "PRIVMSG ... /me action" from the sender, treats it as if it
had received "ACTION action"?
The trick would be that the sending (but not the receiving) prpl-irc
would need to know whether OTR was enabled, but it could easily check
that after the emit of sending-im-msg returns?
If I type /nonexisting, you also want to send that over IRC,
rather than just generate an error that that command doesn't
exit?
I can't speak for Paul, but I wouldn't say so.
I mostly want an accidental typing of /me or /whatever to not leak
plaintext during an OTR conversation:
<otr session active>
Hi Mr.Snowden
/me is scared about the NSA <--- leaks plaintext
about that secret file. The password is:
/secretliesandstatistics <----- leaks plaintext
