Objectives:
all messages in one window
messages sorted by sender/recipient
easy to switch between conversations
follow Windows standards

Specifics:
- Each new conversation adds a new tab to the main conversations window.
- "Conversations" started either by User or a buddy (thats normal)
- When conversation starts, tab is created, and text box fills with previous message history from
this correspondent
- Tab goes away after "x" minutes of inactivity (configurable)
- User can put tab away (right-click on tab, select option from popup menu)
- Use Ctrl-Tab (Windows standard- see the Windows "Find-File" dialog box for example) to easily
switch between conversations.
- Blink each tab for each conversation when a new (not yet seen) message arrives. (blink speed
and colors configurable)
