Bug Description
Binary package hint: pidgin
Pidgin is great, but starting a chat with several contacts is a bit cumbersome. I would like to be able to select more than one contact (using shift or ctrl), right-click one of them and choose "start chat". That would be a lot easier and handier than the current procedure.

By the way, allowing to select more than one contact would also be useful to perform the same action on more than one contact: IM two friends, get their info, send them a file, view their logs.
Any action that can't be performed on more than one contact (e.g. edit their alias) could just appear greyed out.
