[Gaim-devel] Feedback for sending files?

[Dave A. <mig...@ch...>]

Currently, Gaim's filesend feature doesn't provide any feedback after
you offer the file, until the person on the other end actually accepts
and the file transferring dialog pops up. This is more awkward when
using the drag-and-grop filesending, as it's hard to tell whether or not
it worked. I think it would be good if a little notification would
appear in the conversation text saying "Offering <filename> to
<BuddyAlias".

I looked at doing this through a plugin, but currently there aren't any
signals emitted when a file is sent. I don't yet feel comfortable enough
with the code to add the signals myself, but this might be something
nice to add in the future.
