[Bug 332348] Re: Display icon indication for mobile/web client/bot/etc IM users
This continued happening in every version of Ubuntu for the past two years, making me switch to Pidgin every single time. Please fix this bug, it is certainly not fixed!

People are giving feedback to this issue. Some developers would be interested in that. It's frustrating to have the usability of a program hurt so badly by such a seemingly small thing. (It seems like it should be able to qualify as a Papercut.) And this bug report has a whole 7 comments in the extremely long time it's been open.

This is one reason I also can't seriously switch from Pidgin to Empathy.
