Public bug reported:

In empathy, after hitting the 'Account settings' button on the initial
window or selecting 'Empathy -> Accounts' from the menu, I get the
'Online Accounts' dialog box. It has two panes; the left pane has one
element, with a button-shaped icon (with shading that suggests a button)
showing a plus sign and a label "Add account...". Screenshot attached.

I'm here to add an account, so "Add account..." is exactly what I want.
But clicking that label, or the plus-sign button next to it, doesn't do
anything.

After some puzzlement and thinking with my developer hat on, I suspect
this left pane is supposed to contain a list of existing accounts, with
'Add account...' as an option above or below all the existing accounts.
That is probably clear when there are existing accounts, as the pane
then functions as a list from which the user can select. But when there
are no existing accounts yet, the pane is totally inert (as "Add
account..." is already selected and there is nothing else to select and
no way to deselect it), which makes it appear to simply be broken.
