In your first post I thought you meant that it would just update the window when the shortcut was fired rather than destroy and recreate the window entirely. Isn't that method a little bit of a dirty method? I do realise it is easier but I thought Patchou was after quality features....
Well any method is better than having to reopen it manually I guess especially with the likes of enhancer auto-hiding my contact list for me....
Oh and I just realised that it would be a little difficult with the "last chat" stuff too because that would have to be updated more often, unless he added a "currently chatting" when the chat window is still open with that contact. I guess that means probably a little too much work for the next release unfortunately.
* markee hopes to see this feature soon.
