You can group them out and contract the group, like I do.

Well, the only difference is that you have to double-click on the tray icon. And if the contact list is laggy for you, hide the DPs and make the buddies small.
Besides, that dialog does not show any aparent order other than alphabetical, no groups, no hidden groups... etc

Have you ever used Word?
Lower close button: close document
Upper Close button: close application

No how many times have you missed the button and closed the whole application?
Middle click on the tab closes it. This means any tab. Esc closes current tab. I agree there should be a conbo or a context menu option to close all tabs, but I wouldn't add a button. Also, the tab can be set to the top or to the left of the convos, so it wouldn't have much sense to place a close button anyway.

It does indeed: right click > Ungroup this chat.
If you become used to it, you can use Ctrl+F8, which is quite faster than putting a whole new button. Also, as I said, there may be a mouse combination for that.
