The desktop contacts feature is really good and something I find very useful. However, occasionally if a lot of the contacts that I have assigned to be a desktop contact are online at once it can become quite congested.

Therefore I think that it would be a good idea for there to be an option in the preferences for the desktop contact buttons to not be shown if you are talking to one of the contacts.

For example, say I have 'Contact A' as a desktop contact and they are shown on the desktop. If they sign in and I begin a conversation with them it would be ideal if their desktop contact button thingy does not show anymore as it is no longer needed.

See picture.

I like the idea, and I think that it could be easily integrated into Messenger Plus!...

I just hope Patchou adds this feature .

Although, you have to take into consideration those with a higher-res, some may like it like this, as now-a-days, most people are running a higher resolution, whereas, you are running at 800x600...
