This may be similar but is one order of magnitude less severe. Not being able to tell your contacts that you are absent for a particularly long time is a pitty, but not being able at all to tell them that you are absent is close to unacceptable for an "instant message" service.
Note that there are very few clients that can disconnect from certain accounts while you are (only) absent.
