Bug Description
Binary package hint: pidgin
When you add a new Jabber buddy, you get a dialogue box with fields "Screen name" and "Alias". I guess "screen name" has a technical meaning with AIM, but it doesn't for XMPP, so it's not immediately clear where to put the JID (which is the equivalent concept for XMPP). Selecting an XMPP account in the "account" menu should change "Screen name" to "JID" or "Address" or something else clearer than "Screen name".
