As per that Wiki document, Pidgin defaults to not storing passwords. You have to manually check the box to cause it to happen. There is a branch on MTN which enables pidgin to use one of a couple existing keyring systems to store passwords. If this branch receives help to make it stable, then it can be merged. I would strongly encourage anyone interested to look into the state of that branch and submit patches to finish it. Kevin
