Binary package hint: empathy
When Empathy is running and online, gets kicked out because the user has signed in somewhere else, Empathy logs back into the accounts after a short while, kicking the user out where they have just logged in!
In case that wasn't clear: I have an MSN account, a Yahoo! account and an ICQ account. Say I'm working on machine A and am online there with Empathy. Say I move to machine B and log in there. Empathy starts on machine B so that I am online and reachable there, and the instance of Empathy on machine B is automatically logged out of its accounts. This is exactly how it should work. This way I am always reachable on the machine I'm working on, without tediously having to log out explicitly every time on the machine I'm leaving.
However, when I do this, the Empathy instance on machine B logs back into its accounts after a short while, kicking me out of my accounts on machine A! It seems that Empathy just assumes the disconnect was due to network problems and keeps trying to reconnect. Obviously this is very annoying, and not how it should work. Empathy should recognize that the disconnect is permanent, and not try to log back in again until explicitly told to by me.
I know this is possible, because this is what Pidgin does. When I get logged out because I log in somewhere else, Pidgin shows a very nice message saying "3 accounts were disabled because you signed on from another location:" and then lists the accounts, together with a "re-enable" button so I can quickly log in again when I'm back. So apparently for all three account types it's possible to tell that the disconnect was due to logging in somewhere else, and Empathy should be able to provide the same functionality as Pidgin.
