It may be worth approaching the guy who did it for pidgin. An alternative might be to write a shim library so that pidgin plugins would work with empathy.

There were a few minor things that could be improved (e.g. automatically resizing the contact list), but that is not the topic here. The reason why I won't switch to empathy from pidgin is the missing OTR support (http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/ ). This is a really important feature because no one should read your messages. There were others with the same idea (links at the bottom). Would be so great if it could support that important encryption standard. Thanks for helping out!
