Bug Description

Binary package hint: empathy

Sometimes it happens you have some contacts (ex. MSN) that don't have you. Would it be nice to have some kind of "re-authorize request" entry in the right-click menu?
Also it would be cool if empathy was able to tell you information about your contacts like:
a. has you?
b. blocked you
etc..

Andrea, Can you please tell if any other IM client supports such feature (on any platform).

Pidgin has the "has you" thing, but It doesn't show you a "re-authorize" option for the buddies with "Has you" set to "No".

I think I used meebo to ask authorizations.. but I'm not sure, it was long ago.
