Okay, reproduced it now. It's even worse than described here if I get it right.

Can someone try this:
1. Have two accounts in pidgin (or whatever IM)
2. Go offline with your KTP account
3. Send messages from the Pidgin account(s) to the KTP account
4. Go online with your KTP account
5. Randomly, both or just one of the chat windows will be empty when opening
ktp-text-ui.
Okay, so far that's what is described in the report already. Now:
6. From the account that has the empty view, send another message. For me, that
message is not displayed either. Only if you send a message *to* the account
with the empty window and then send another one *from* that account, it gets
displayed again.
Can someone reproduce that?

I investigated the reason for this a bit, and I found that the empty view
(which, as you might have noticed, don't have backlog either!) have no HTML
<body>. It's just missing. Thus, the javascript which adds the message fails
(the error message is discarded and the return value is not being checked
either). I tried this with two different themes, a custom one and the default
(I think?) Renkoo theme -- same thing for both.

I'll try to find out why that is tomorrow (too late for today *yawn*) but maybe
someone has an idea in the meantime already which makes this easier? ;)
