Bug Description
In Pidgin, when you double-click to edit an irc channel title, the name turns into a text box. If you right click on this (to copy the text for instance), it will lock up Pidgin which then can only be killed from a command line.
It should be noted that it's not a complete lock up, because you will still see incoming IRC messages, however you cannot interact with the application.
When launched using --debug from the command line the following messages appear:
(16:29:53) pidgin-libnotify: Conversation Updated (UNSEEN)
