That patch is a great improvement. It would be even better if it
eliminated the word graphical, since that goes without saying.

If I read the patch to upstream right, this part is still left in on the
first line: graphical multi-protocol instant messaging client for X,
which is still a geeky and hard to understand description, especially
since I think some tools will use just this line (don't know about
software center).
