 Thats a regression from 0.88.

 Current code in 0.9x relies (looks like) only on roster to assume what
 buddies is online. Thats sounds like reimplementing the wheel within
 jabber protocol, since there is presence state of buddies for that case.
 Even if it was done due to optimization reasons, it breaks workflow for
 non-sugar buddies (though, this workflow is not well supported in sugar).

 In any case, 0.88 behaves more standard and do not show offline buddies in
 F1 view.
