I see this is still filed as Importance: Undecided and it is yet to be assigned. I'd like to make the case that its importance is quite high, in that it makes the chat component of pidgin-skype unusable.
In some instances, when the conversation is just starting, one notices that the chat window has opened empty, and if one knows about this bug, one can ask the other party to re-send their previous message. While this is highly inconvenient, and leads to all sorts of questions that usually end up making Linux look bad, it's not necessarily always critical. In other instances, however, where the window is already open, one has no clue that a message has been lost. The uncertainty this creates makes it necessary to resort to the chat window in Skype itself. It also means leaving the Pidgin window open too (otherwise it will spring open constantly), thus perpetuating the uncertaintly cycle. Please take this view into consideration and raise the level of importance.
