I just released the version 0.14.2 of the pidgin-libnotify plugin. It now includes autoclose as an option, as well as the led alert.

So if you have the led option enabled when you receive an alert it will blink the led (just like it does when you receive an SMS) until the notification is closed.

If autoclose is enabled, the notification will be closed automatically in 3 seconds. Otherwise it stays open. If you click on it, it'll focus the IM window of the buddy that talked to you (and caused the notification). If that window was previously closed, it'll reopen it.

I'm waiting for the upload permission on the repo, so if you're one of the first 10 people that read this post, you can download it from:
