The msn protocol allows a client to be connected but invisible to the buddies/friends of the client.
This is the HIDE status:

Described here:

The requested feature: Add support for the hide-status.
This also means that it is possible to sign-in with a hidden status.

Hmmm.. i checked the latest source and is see this:
/**
* Hide.
*/
public static final MsnUserStatus HIDE = new MsnUserStatus("HDN", "HIDE");
So it is already supported? I mailed with daniel henninger about this issue..
So maybe it isnt an issue after all.. i will try to use this HIDE status.
