Bug Description
Binary package hint: empathy
If you right click on a user name and click info in pidgin you are presented with some useful information about the other user. Real name etc....
However if you do the same in empathy the information is not nearly as informative even though the labelling is the same. Real name = user.
For example My real name is Dave Morley, pidgin displays this correctly, it also displays the other channels I'm in.
Empathy says Identifier davmor2, alias davmor2. This isn't so useful if someone is after you by name :( nor does it display other channels. This is useful if your in a group i.e. qa to track the channels of importance to the other members and so may be of importance to you also.
