Get rid fo purple_strlcpy and purple_strlcat. These are convenience functions that call g_strlcpy and g_strlcat. They're only mildly convenient, though. And only used in one place. The reason I don't like them is that I think it's easy to use them incorrectly. It's easy to use the functions and not realize that they use sizeof() to determine the size of the destination buffer. I think it's too easy to accidentally use these functions with a string on the heap (which wouldn't work correctly).

char *(*image_deleting)(const PurpleStoredImage *img);
  @endsignalproto
  @signaldesc
   Emitted when a #PurpleStoredImage is about to be destroyed.  This allows
   for what amounts to weak references.  Code can hold onto a pointer to
   the PurpleStoredImage without actually "holding" a reference.  They can
   then use a signal handler to let them know when their img is about to
   be destroyed.
  @param img The image about to be destroyed.
  @note It's not possible to purple_imgstore_ref() img to save it.
