[gaim-migrate @ 15504] This removes the toolbar from the tab focus order for the Status window, the same way we remove it for the conversation window. The only problem with this is that there is now no way to reach some of the formatting options without using the mouse. We should probably add imhtml signals for the missing options, or add a focus_toolbar signal. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>
