FYI, a suboptimal but effective workaround in the mean time is to install and enable the "pidgin-libnotify" plugin. After doing so, you can close the buddy window and the chat window(s) stay open; the downside is that it's still not in the systray, and if you need to get back to the buddy window, you have to "re-launch" pidgin (which appears to detect the current running instance and switches you to it).
