[Adium-devl] Message style prefs

	I got another request from a style author for message-style-specific  
prefs today. The benefits are rather striking: eliminate 80+ variants  
that are just trivial CSS changes. The downside is figuring out the  
UI. One proposal that has been made is simply providing an API for  
saving and loading prefs values, and letting message styles provide  
their own configuration UI (for example: a dashboard style 'i' button  
in the header that turns it into a configure window). I'm not  
convinced this is a good thing to do though, so I'd welcome input on it.
