Adium message styles seem to be a relatively common "standard", but sound and smiley themes should be an easily managed standard format, such as XML (since we already have good XML parsing).  This would make libpurple's information gathering and presentation to the UI common and simple and allow many UI's to benefit without reinventing the wheel.
