I think the Plus! Notifications could be a little improved if they could be enabled/disabled for certain satuses only. That way, when set to "Appear Offline", for example, no popups come up, and no sounds are heard.

My original thought was to see this as a plugin, allowing control over both Messenger and Plus! popups and sounds.

Well, you can choose one status among the list. However MP! can't tell whether the contact is appearing offline or is offline at all, so there's no real difference. But yes, notifications should be improved to allow you to assign groups o the same notification setup, to choose more than one status and less than any and maybe something like the contact-filter to choose some people for a single setup (for if you don't use groups).

No KeyStorm I don't think you got what I meant. What I want is an easy way to disable Plus notifications based on MY status, so if I set myself to a specific status, there won't be any popups or sounds. I don't mean a per-contact or per-group notification improvement (I already suggested that HERE), but a general on/off setting based on my status (kind of like the option that allows you to allow notifications while busy or not, but this would apply to all statuses)
