First off, this is not a duplicate of  #340366; that is about the
redundancy caused by the persistent messaging interface icon, whereas
this bug is about incorrect behavior *introduced* in
11_buddy_list_really_show.patch:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ted-
gould/pidgin/11_buddy_list_really_show.patch/revision/19?remember=20

This behavior is present in Jaunty final upon upgrading from 8.10.

Ted's comment[0] from the 15th seems to indicate that the thinks this is
acceptable behavior. I don't care about "arms races"; if it's idiocy on
the part of WMs that keeps pidgin from getting focus, don't respond with
idiocy by forcing the window to show up on all workspaces. Incorrect is
forgivable, but annoying is not, and this is *very* annoying behavior.
If that means I have a pulsing pidgin in my taskbar instead of pidgin
having focus - and I should note that the pulsing taskbar was the
previous behavior, much better behavior, and was what I thought to be
the intended behavior - then so be it.
