[gaim-migrate @ 111] Heh, this is a good thing to fix. Before, if you send an IM, you can change it going out, but on your converation window, it would look unchanged. Now, if a plugin changes the outgoing text, the conversation window displays the new text. committer: Tailor Script <tailor@pidgin.im>
