Comment(by datallah):

 The return value of `purple_request_yes_no()` isn't useful; the request
 implementation may or may not return a non-NULL value.

 While it is certainly suboptimal that the request API is used during the
 prpl login, implementing the request API isn't really optional as it is
 used for a number of important things (like this, and key related
 functionality in SILC).
