Although an option to sort that list wouldn't be wrong (also improving the "name selecting wheel" so it behaves the same as with the contact list would be nice).

You can always make a suggestion to the Messenger team by going to the main menu: Help > Send Feedback or by going to http://support.live.com/eform.aspx?productKey=wlmessenger.

Yes. Exactly the point I am making. You can choose to show only online contacts in the main messenger window, but not in the window you get from the system tray context menu. When you have a lot of contacts, and you want to send an IM to an online contact, it is simply too awkward and slow.
