Title:
  Cannot respond to friendship requests from Empathy

Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When I'm using GTalk in Empathy and someone requests to see my status,
  I get a notification bubble but can't do nothing about it. If I happen
  to already have the person in my contact list, I can open the list and
  click on the name to authorize. But most of the time people will *not*
  already have the person in there.

  I remember that in previous version of Ubuntu, a request would create
  an entry in the Messaging Menu, which would then show a dialog box
  when you clicked on it. Not sure if it was the best solution, but at
  least it was something. I don't know if this was disabled or broke.
