To expand on what Leonid said, I also like it larger because it controls the bottom of the main chat window above it, which I don't like to be too low. Having a larger area for my typing helps to visually distinguish the top area from the bottom area as well. I can understand if this was done for a security reason or something, but changing a program from offering an option to no longer offering it at all, is not the way to write software. It's a shame: I really like Pidgin and have been willing to overlook some of its other minor flaws and limitations, but this one just might cause me to abandon it in search of something else.
