Bug Description
Binary package hint: indicator-applet
In current jaunty, when I start pidgin, two icons appear: the standard pidgin systray icon, and the messaging indicator, which has "Pidgin Internet Instant Messaging" in it. Clicking on that, as well as clicking on the pidgin icon have the very same effect (showing/hiding the pidgin window).
Thus this is redundant. IMHO the messaging indicator should only show itself if there are actual messages, or pidgin should not show its icon in the tray if i-a is running (I guess if that's the plan, this needs to go into pidgin-libnotify).
Also, i-a doesn't show any pidgin messages, ever. What is it actually supposed to show? I have pidgin-libnotify up and running, it shows bubbles.

This is changing the default value in Pidgin to not show the icon in the notification area by default.
