I don't believe pidgin clears logs with Ctrl+L just the window buffer. I tend to like the Ctrl+L myself because I use it often. I don't see how the behavoir of firefox should be used to justify the behavoir of an IM client any more than the behavoir a ptty. In some applications Ctrl+L means location, in others it means clear. This doesn't seem horribly inconsistent on the grand scheme of things because it wouldn't make sense in pidgin to have a location-keybinding, or in nautilus to have a clear. Ctrl+C would be better if it wasn't already taken by sigint -- which really raises the question wtf is Ctrl+C sigint in a modern system, can't we move kernel signals to SysRq F1-F12, that would seem more appropriate.
