Thank you Sitsofe, appreciate it. What you described seem to be much
better than my pessimistic expectation :)
Yet, IMHO this still doesn't lift off the ultimate need for this feature
for shared & corporate environments

I think this is very important to fix. I love Empathy but I just can't
have my password stored anywhere in plain text (I'm assuming plain text
here, would love to be corrected).

In a "shared family computer" where the PC automatically logins a random user,
this "feature" in empathy is useless, and actually puts your passwords at
risks. It is quite curious that empathy does not allow configuring accounts in
such a way that it asks for the password everytime it connects,
It looks like Empathy uses the Gnome keyring for storing passwords, so
at least they are encrypted when saved (unlike Pidgin). I agree that it
would be good to not require password saving. But at least the passwords
should not be readable by anyone else even with admin or physical access
to the com
The upstream bug is still marked as UNCONFIRMED. I confirmed it in
bugzilla since it's probably better if upstream is more aware of it.

I agree that empathy should not be the default chat client until this
issue is resolved, and that it should be switched to pidgin, as it has
been in previous releases.

I agree with Everett and Ricardo. I recently posted a bug
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/telepathy-

related to the usage of Empathy. Setting Empathy as default IM client

Maybe pidgin should be the default IM program again, since Empathy is not
ready yet for security reasons. Empathy still will be in main repos if
somebody want it...

Wouldn't the sensible thing to do be keep the non-security-compromising
app (pidgin) as the default until its replacement is ready to not
compromise the security of those who use it?

We have nobody to work on this right now, and since pidgin is still in

Laurent: Since the bug priority was just reduced, the bug hasn't been

I certainly have systems I'd rather not store passwords on, I think for
a default client, this is not Low and should be addressed.
