RE: [Suggestion] Ability to display contacts version of Messenger/Plus!
If you want to see if they have Messenger Plus! installed, type "/ping" as a message to them. If they have Plus! it will automatically send back a confirmation message. THis is then stored in the Contact Information window. However, this doesn't say what version they have, and so will not tell you if they can hear sounds.

As for what Messenger version they have, that would involve modifying the protocol, which PAtchou won't do.
And if they created a plugin that did it, there would be the problem that it would only work if both contacts had it.
