I tell you what you deserve credit markee...although I will say (and not many know this apart from my closefamily members) when I tried ages ago I kept failing miserably, and just forgot about doing it, hence why I thought it was a protocol thing preventing it.
But you have definately proved otherwise...oh and by the way, just as an idea for the interface, when I was doing my one (and kept failing) I was doing it so it was like a table showing the Nickname of the contact, their email address and the chat-only name that was going to be set. Perhaps an idea to have in your mind maybe?

The existance of the ChatOnly Name feature is exactly because the protocol does allow you to send specific stuff to a contact. Otherwise there wasn't a chatonly nickname feature to begin with.
Aka: when Messenger sends a line to another contact, the name of the sender is included. And it is exactly this name which is changed to have the ChatOnly Nickname feature.
Fair enough, as I said I kept trying and fail each time...if only I kept it and didn't trash it when I formatted...oh well such is life I suppose.
Now to run along and watch Australia win
