Well yes, but it precisely not being able to do that makes maintaining a sane contact list out of the question. The warning is irrelevant.

When I'm no longer actively in contact with someone and I no longer want them to see me online when I'm away from the PC, I want to drop them from my phone contact list otherwise it gets insanely long to scroll / search through, but I don't want them gone from the server.

It's utterly daft that you can client-only add IM contacts individually but not do the exact reverse which is client-only remove them individually.
