The presence of an Authorise Jabber User dialog prevents me from doing
anything else in the application, including reading/writing messages to
other people, and attempting to look up a Jabber user...

This dialog really does not need to be modal.

While I don't have the means to generate Jabber auth messages on demand, I
did notice that there were other (preference-related) dialogs that were
needlessly modal, preventing me from reading and replying to messages.
