When I join a group chat on a Jabber server, Adium shows a green chat bubble icon next to everybody's name, even though several people are away. (I can tell they are away because when I click the "Get Info" context menu on a user who is away, the dialog says "status: Away"). I expected it to show red bubbles when people are away (same as it does for IRC chat).
Note that when I connect using iChat as a Jabber client, the away users have a gray circle next to them.
I've tried this with Adium versions 1.4.2 and 1.4.3rc2, same result.
