Just what I suspected... what about an addon where I could disable my auto-idle function so that I'm always online, but then have the addon (installed on both my computer and that of the person I'm talking to) give information such as if I or that contact are idle for x minutes or even more information.
I would just really like something like this to use with close people such as my girlfriend, best friend, close family members, etc, but I have lots of other friends who I talk to and don't want to block (I just don't want to give too much of my personal status/information to everyone (I was also partially hoping I could get MORE information from those who are close to me if anything)).
It would be nice if an addon could be made that could be installed on both computers (for example, mine and my girlfriend) to send more personal status information without enabling the auto-idle function.  (examples of functions could be Idle time starting real-time count-up after 30 seconds/1 minute of no computer activity, number of chats we have open, maybe even somewhere to enter a few words describing our mood, plus anything else that could be nice to know for usefulness or just curiosity's sake) (privacy isn't an issue because we aske achother this stuff all the time and don't mind how much eachother knows, it would just be way more convenient and useful this way)

I might just start a new thread for this one, seeing that it's pretty much a new request.

once again, help is greatly appreciated!! thanks again!!
