Bug Description

Binary package hint: empathy

Contacts in "Contact List", manually marked "Favourite" by the user, should support "show when offline".
This way, i can always see them, whether they are offline, invisible to others or online.

I also suggest showing favourite contacts in the MeMenu.. Not sure yet whether all favs should be there or only the 5 "most frequently contacted" ones, as SeiLo might probably suggest now..

I would absolutely love this feature. The inability to show only specific users when they are offline is one of the very few reasons I have stuck with Pidgin. Particularly with the Favourite option, this could be a superb addition. If not globally, perhaps a preferences option of "Show favourites when offline."
