Ok... let's throw this to the wild.
Support for "So-and-so want's authorization" in the core.
It creates a new mini-dialog in the blist for this with an
Authorize and Deny button, which do as you might imagine.
Clicking Authorize will also spawn an "Add buddy" dialog
if that person isn't already a buddy. I'm not sure I like
this, since I never add buddies that I authorize, but it
seems the best option.
I considered a checkbox in the dialog (but it only applies
when you hit "Authorize," which could be weird), and a
third "Authorize and Add" button (but that was too big for
the blist).
I'll come back to the UI later, I'm sure. I'd like to see
that the prpl changes all work. Yahoo, especially, looked
confusing, and had the most changes.
I'm mostly happy with this.

For information on writing a plugin for Gaim, go http://gaim.sourceforge.net/api/ and see the HOWTOs in the "Related Pages" section. You can also generate this documentation locally by installing doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the Gaim source tree. The documentation will be in the docs/html directory. This next paragraph is old and possibly out of date: Compilation of the plugins is fairly straight-forward; there is a Makefile in this directory that has a rule for making the .so file from a .c file. No modification of the Makefile should be necessary, unless if you simply want to type 'make' to have it made; otherwise, 'make filename.so' will take filename.c and make the .so plugin from it. If you need to link in with extra libraries, you can set the environment variable PLUGIN_LIBS to be the libraries you want to link with. It should be possible to compile plugins outside of the Gaim source tree, which is a much cleaner solution.
