In the attention API, use the PURPLE_NOTIFY_MESSAGE flag to serv_got_im() instead of manually writing to the conversation window, as suggested by sadrul at http://pidgin.im/pipermail/devel/2007-August/002935.html. Yahoo and MSN already use this flag to indicate an attention/notify-type message. Also split off half of serv_got_attention() into serv_send_attention(), see http://pidgin.im/pipermail/devel/2007-August/002940.html. Now the attention API integrates well with the patch to add PURPLE_MESSAGE_NOTIFY at http://hiks.net/drop/adium/libgaim.diff.
