KeyStorm, that's exactly what I said....

No, not vice versa, there is a small difference. There shouldn't be any acknowledgement. It still isn't: "let's see if someone uses plus!" (ack needs to be send, just like with the /ping)... It still is: "lets tell people I'm using plus!" (both clients send this to eachother, so no acknowledgement; just like sending /ping whenever you send a message, but without the other client responding to it). The client doesn't actively looks for the string. It gets the string parsed. There is a small difference there...
The only options that should be available (and turned off by default) is: "Tell others I use Plus!" and "show <something> if others use Plus!". This is indeed very similar of how the webcam-icon works.
So anyway, we mean the same... but I was more referring to other posters (including Patchou) who start talking about "let's see if someone is using plus!", which is different.
