Following this thread I updated my writeup on using OTR with Pidgin for FB chat:

Intended audience is home user, not technical expert, hence I try to
mask complexity and focus on motivation & functionality. With that in
mind, please let me know off-list for any inaccuracies that need
correcting.

Thank you for all your help so far,
