We could add a menu item for it, at the top of the account's status  
submenu.

I still think that this checkbox is a much simpler solution than  
adding an entire other caste of accounts. Is there anything else that  
those services would need such separation for?

And how would we express the social-networking-service/IM-service  
divide in the UI, anyway?

- How would users tell social-networking accounts from IM accounts in  
the Accounts list?
- How would users add a social-networking account vs. an IM account?
- Can a user add an account on a social-networking service, but have  
the account be an IM account? (I.e., have one's Facebook account  
follow global status, in opposition to the default)
- How would users tell a social-networking account from an IM account  
in the Status menu?
