O.P. [Request] Contacts list feature
I am unsure if this can be done through scripting, so I am sorry if it cannot. I know it could be done 'before' as in, Messenger Plus! had it as a feature back when WLM was still MSN, but it was removed when WP!L was released, but I don't know if that's the type of 'before' you mean. Anywho:

I'd like to be able to give my contacts nicknames, and be able to see both their nickname AND their chosen screen name in the contacts list.

I know the feature was removed because WLM incorporated nicknames itself, but it just doesn't work how I want it to and I've not used WLM for over 2 years now simply because I've had no way to do this. I want to start using WLM again, but I just can't do it without this.

I have so many contacts that I just don't know who's who, so I need nicknames so I can remember, BUT at the same time, it's screen names that start conversations, so if I can't see them, what's the point in being on WLM? I also feel I'm being rude if I can't see my contacts' screen names. They've chosen them for a reason, because they want people to see them. I want to be able to.

So yeah, if this is possible, awesome! Is anyone willing to script it for me?
If not, I'm sorry. Do you think it'd be worth a try requesting the feature is re-introduced in a later update of WP!L?

Thank you.
