[Adium-devl] Empty Directory File Transfers

While finalizing support for bonjour file transfer I ran into a
question about directory transfers. If you try to send an empty
folder in iChat either through AIM or Bonjour the following dialog
appears:
"File transfer error
There are no files in the selected folder
( OK )"
Adium presents no such dialog. For all of the libpurple protocols,
Adium just zips the empty folder and then attempts to send that. I
feel that it would be better to display a dialog similar to that of
iChat. I, however, am not familiar enough with all of the protocols
so would this be the expected behavior for all file transfers?
If that behavior is okay I would suggest Adium present the following
dialog:
"File Transfer Error
The folder you selected can't be sent because it contains no files.
( OK )"
