I'd like to try to balence consistency with not introducing hacks for things the protocol can't do. right now we fail at both. we could simply not add a way to go to "block all" on MSN (and other protocols that don't support this). much like the right click options change with protocol. One thing I think we could do is determine that several behaviors are identical. for instance aim and yahoo have "invisible," and MSN has "hidden", do these differ? If so, how? if not, do we really need two different words for it? luke > > -- > Felipe Contreras |
